Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning out the noise: limbic-auditory interactions in tinnitus.
TL;DR: A testable model for tinnitus is proposed that is grounded in recent findings from human imaging and focuses on brain areas in cortex, thalamus, and ventral striatum and aims to enable the development of effective treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dysregulation of Limbic and Auditory Networks in Tinnitus
Amber M. Leaver,Laurent Renier,Mark A. Chevillet,Susan Morgan,Hung J. Kim,Josef P. Rauschecker +5 more
TL;DR: Tinnitus-related anomalies were intercorrelated in the two limbic regions and between limbic and primary auditory areas, indicating the importance of auditory-limbic interactions in tinnitus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cortical representation of natural complex sounds: effects of acoustic features and auditory object category.
TL;DR: A hierarchical organization of the anteroventral auditory-processing stream is supported, with the most anterior regions representing the complete acoustic signature of auditory objects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural Plasticity of the Hippocampus and Amygdala Induced by Electroconvulsive Therapy in Major Depression.
Shantanu H. Joshi,Randall Espinoza,Tara Pirnia,Jie Shi,Yalin Wang,Brandon Ayers,Amber M. Leaver,Roger P. Woods,Katherine L. Narr +8 more
TL;DR: ECT-induced neuroplasticity in the hippocampus and amygdala relates to improved clinical response and is pronounced in regions with prominent connections to ventromedial prefrontal cortex and other limbic structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain Activation during Anticipation of Sound Sequences
Amber M. Leaver,Jennifer Van Lare,Brandon A. Zielinski,Andrea R. Halpern,Josef P. Rauschecker +4 more
TL;DR: The findings regarding musical anticipation and sound sequence learning are highly compatible with studies of motor sequence learning, suggesting common predictive mechanisms in both domains.
