Journal ArticleDOI
Dual streams of auditory afferents target multiple domains in the primate prefrontal cortex.
Lizabeth M. Romanski,Biao Tian,Jonathan B. Fritz,Mortimer Mishkin,Patricia S. Goldman-Rakic,Josef P. Rauschecker +5 more
TL;DR: Injection of multiple tracers into physiologically mapped regions AL, ML and CL of the auditory belt cortex revealed that anterior belt cortex was reciprocally connected with the frontal pole, rostral principal sulcus and ventral prefrontal regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid task-related plasticity of spectrotemporal receptive fields in primary auditory cortex.
TL;DR: Investigation of the hypothesis that task performance can rapidly and adaptively reshape cortical receptive field properties in accord with specific task demands and salient sensory cues found that attending to a specific target frequency during the detection task consistently induced localized facilitative changes in STRF shape.
Journal ArticleDOI
Auditory attention : focusing the searchlight on sound
TL;DR: Current research seeks to unravel the complex interactions of pre-attentive and attentive processing of the acoustic scene, the role of auditory attention in mediating receptive-field plasticity in both auditory spatial and auditory feature processing, the contrasts and parallels between auditory and visual attention pathways and mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Task reward structure shapes rapid receptive field plasticity in auditory cortex
TL;DR: Top-down control of sensory processing can be shaped by task reward structure in addition to the required sensory discrimination, and representations in A1 change not only to sharpen representations of task-relevant stimuli but also to amplify responses to stimuli that signal aversive outcomes and lead to behavioral inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Dynamic Plasticity of A1 Receptive Fields during Multiple Spectral Tasks
TL;DR: A distinct pattern of STRF change is found in ferret primary auditory cortex, characterized by an expected selective enhancement at target tone frequency but also by an equally selective depression at reference tone frequency.
