Emotional sounds in space: asymmetrical representation within early-stage auditory areas

Evidence from behavioral studies suggests that the spatial origin of sounds may influence the perception of emotional valence. Using 7T fMRI we have investigated the impact of the categories of sound (vocalizations; non-vocalizations), emotional valence (p ...

A brief exposure to rightward prismatic adaptation changes resting-state network characteristics of the ventral attentional system

Patric Hagmann, Stephanie Clarke

A brief session of rightward prismatic adaptation (R-PA) has been shown to alleviate neglect symptoms in patients with right hemispheric damage, very likely by switching hemispheric dominance of the ventral attentional network (VAN) from the right to the l ...

Processing pathways for emotional vocalizations

Olivier Benoit Thomas Reynaud, Stephanie Clarke

Emotional sounds are processed within a large cortico-subcortical network, of which the auditory cortex, the voice area, and the amygdala are the core regions. Using 7T fMRI, we have compared the effect of emotional valence (positive, neutral, and negative ...

Keeping track of sound objects in space: The contribution of early-stage auditory areas

Stephanie Clarke

The influential dual-stream model of auditory processing stipulates that information pertaining to the meaning and to the position of a given sound object is processed in parallel along two distinct pathways, the ventral and dorsal auditory streams. Functi ...

Electrically Assisted Movement Therapy in Chronic Stroke Patients With Severe Upper Limb Paresis: A Pilot, Single-Blind, Randomized Crossover Study

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Andrea Biasiucci, Silvio Ionta, Andrea Maesani, Stephanie Clarke

Objective To evaluate the effects of electrically assisted movement therapy (EAMT) in which patients use functional electrical stimulation, modulated by a custom device controlled through the patient's unaffected hand, to produce or assist task-specific up ...

High-Resolution fMRI of Auditory Cortical Map Changes in Unilateral Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Melissa Saenz, Naghmeh Ghazaleh, Stephanie Clarke

Animal models of hearing loss and tinnitus observe pathological neural activity in the tonotopic frequency maps of the primary auditory cortex. Here, we applied ultra high-field fMRI at 7 T to test whether human patients with unilateral hearing loss and ti ...

Intrahemispheric cortico-cortical connections of the human auditory cortex

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann, Reto Meuli, Leila Cammoun, Stephanie Clarke

The human auditory cortex comprises the supratemporal plane and large parts of the temporal and parietal convexities. We have investigated the relevant intrahemispheric cortico-cortical connections using in vivo DSI tractography combined with landmark-base ...

Representation of Sound Objects within Early-Stage Auditory Areas: A Repetition Effect Study Using 7T fMRI

Wietske Van der Zwaag, Melissa Saenz, Stephanie Clarke

Environmental sounds are highly complex stimuli whose recognition depends on the interaction of top-down and bottom-up processes in the brain. Their semantic representations were shown to yield repetition suppression effects, i. e. a decrease in activity d ...

Tonotopic Gradients in Human Primary Auditory Cortex: Concurring Evidence From High-Resolution 7 T and 3 T fMRI

Wietske Van der Zwaag, Melissa Saenz, Stephanie Clarke

The tonotopic representations within the primary auditory cortex (PAC) have been successfully mapped with ultra-high field fMRI. Here, we compared the reliability of this tonotopic mapping paradigm at 7 T with 1.5 mm spatial resolution with maps acquired a ...

Tuning In to Sound: Frequency-Selective Attentional Filter in Human Primary Auditory Cortex

Wietske Van der Zwaag, Melissa Saenz, Stephanie Clarke

Cocktail parties, busy streets, and other noisy environments pose a difficult challenge to the auditory system: how to focus attention on selected sounds while ignoring others? Neurons of primary auditory cortex, many of which are sharply tuned to sound fr ...
