TL;DR: The radial contribution in the P2 radial source amplitude in EEG is expressed preferentially in EEG, highlighting the importance of combining EEG with MEG where complex source configurations are suspected.

TL;DR: Late auditory potentials from lateral and medial regions in the frontal, temporal and parietal lobes of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy implanted with horizontal depth electrodes lend further support to the multiple generator hypothesis of late potentials and suggest that some of the cerebral sources of theLate potentials are stimulus dependent while others are not.

TL;DR: This article found that older adults with hearing loss are at greater risk for developing cognitive impairments than peers with better hearing, and older adults exhibit enhanced cognitive compensation with performance on auditory tasks being facilitated by top-down use of context and knowledge.

TL;DR: It is proposed that music practice may have conferred an executive control advantage for musicians in later life through the underlying neural mechanisms that may support apparent beneficial effects of life-long musical practice on cognition.

TL;DR: The view that auditory cortex in or near Heschl's gyrus as well as in the planum temporale are involved in sound segregation is supported and a link between left thalamo-cortical activation and the successful separation and identification of simultaneous speech sounds is revealed.
