To derive meaning from sound, the brain must integrate information across many timescales.
What computations underlie multiscale integration in human auditory cortex? Evidence …

Sounds are generated by interactions between objects in the world and carry information
about the sound's sources and the objects' sound-generating actions. This dual nature of …

A central question about the human mind is whether perception is an encapsulated process
driven purely by sensory information or whether it is intricately linked with cognitive …

Expectations shape our experience of music. However, the internal model upon which
listeners form melodic expectations is still debated. Do expectations stem from Gestalt-like …

Perceptual learning is a powerful mechanism to enhance perceptual abilities and to form
robust memory representations of previously unfamiliar sounds. Memory formation through …

Human listeners possess an innate capacity to discern patterns within rapidly unfolding
sensory input. Core questions, guiding ongoing research, focus on the mechanisms through …

Statistical learning and probabilistic prediction are fundamental processes in auditory
cognition. A prominent computational model of these processes is Prediction by Partial …

Stochastic sounds are useful to probe auditory memory, as they require listeners to learn
unpredictable and novel patterns under controlled experimental conditions. Previous studies …

Advancements in cochlear implants (CIs) have led to a significant increase in bilateral CI
users, especially among children. Yet, most bilateral CI users do not fully achieve the …

Listening in complex sound environments requires rapid segregation of different sound
sources, eg, having a conversation with multiple speakers or other environmental sounds …
