The neural architecture in the auditory cortex -- the part of the brain that processes sound -- of profoundly deaf and hearing people is virtually identical, a new study has found. The study ...

The brain scans showed that, in deaf subjects, the auditory cortex was activated when looking at rhythmic patterns of flashing lights (as were parts of the visual processing system). By contrast ...

Researchers have shown that the brain’s primary auditory cortex is more responsive to ... other than human vocalizations do not have this association with the left side.” ...

Scientists studying brain process involved in sight have found the visual cortex also uses information gleaned from the ears as well as the eyes when viewing the world. They suggest this auditory ...

Older musicians do not experience certain changes in the auditory cortex -- the part of the brain involved with hearing -- that are associated with aging, according to new research. The old adage ...
