Objective: Music and speech are complex signals containing regularities in how they unfold
in time. Similarities between music and speech/language in terms of their auditory features …

Here we review the role of brain oscillations in sensory processing. We examine the idea
that neural entrainment of intrinsic oscillations underlies the processing of rhythmic stimuli in …

The processes underwriting the acquisition of culture remain unclear. How are shared
habits, norms, and expectations learned and maintained with precision and reliability across …

Research in basic and clinical neuroscience of music conducted over the past decades has
begun to uncover music's high potential as a tool for rehabilitation. Advances in our …

Although a growing literature points to substantial variation in speech/language abilities
related to individual differences in musical abilities, mainstream models of communication …

“Neural coding” is a popular metaphor in neuroscience, where objective properties of the
world are communicated to the brain in the form of spikes. Here I argue that this metaphor is …

Interpersonal musical entrainment—temporal synchronization and coordination between
individuals in musical contexts—is a ubiquitous phenomenon related to music's social …

Rhythmicity permeates large parts of human experience. Humans generate various motor
and brain rhythms spanning a range of frequencies. We also experience and synchronize to …

It is undisputed that presenting a rhythmic stimulus leads to a measurable brain response
that follows the rhythmic structure of this stimulus. What is still debated, however, is the …

The pleasurable desire to move to music, also known as groove, is modulated by rhythmic
complexity. How the sensation of groove is influenced by other musical features, such as the …
