Specialized neural dynamics for verbal and tonal memory: fMRI evidence in congenital amusia
Behavioral and neuropsychological studies have suggested that tonal and verbal short‐term
memory are supported by specialized neural networks. To date however, neuroimaging …

The role of cochlear place coding in the perception of frequency modulation
Natural sounds convey information via frequency and amplitude modulations (FM and AM).
Humans are acutely sensitive to the slow rates of FM that are crucial for speech and music …

Sensitivity to frequency modulation is limited centrally
Modulations in both amplitude and frequency are prevalent in natural sounds and are critical
in defining their properties. Humans are exquisitely sensitive to frequency modulation (FM) …

Revisiting the neural basis of acquired amusia: lesion patterns and structural changes underlying amusia recovery
Although, acquired amusia is a common deficit following stroke, relatively little is still known
about its precise neural basis, let alone to its recovery. Recently, we performed a voxel …

Learning for pitch and melody discrimination in congenital amusia
Congenital amusia is currently thought to be a life-long neurogenetic disorder in music
perception, impervious to training in pitch or melody discrimination. This study provides an …

Pleasantness makes a good time: musical consonance shapes interpersonal synchronization in dyadic joint action
Introduction Music making is a process by which humans across cultures come together to
create patterns of sounds that are aesthetically pleasing. What remains unclear is how this …

Individuals with congenital amusia do not show context-dependent perception of tonal categories
Perceptual adaptation is an active cognitive process where listeners re-analyse speech
categories based on new contexts/situations/talkers. It involves top-down influences from …
