Jennifer Brout: Would you tell us about your research regarding Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) findings and ...

An interview with a prominent researcher addresses common questions and helps untangle the auditory neuroscience underlying ...

The brain can reorganize itself in the face of a traumatic injury or a sensory disability. For example, in deaf mammals, the auditory processing neurons of the brain may be rewired to handle other ...

Although disrupted processing of speech sounds has been implicated in the underlying pathology of dyslexia, the basis of this disruption and how it interferes with reading comprehension has not been ...

Does the deaf brain "see" with its ears? New research shows the auditory cortex maps visual space through selective deactivation, a breakthrough in neuroplasticity.

Hearing is so effortless for most of us that it’s often difficult to comprehend how much information the brain’s auditory system needs to process and disentangle. It has to take incoming sounds and ...

After years of research, neuroscientists have discovered a new pathway in the human brain that processes the sounds of language. The findings, reported August 18 in the journal Cell, suggest that ...

Central Auditory Processing (CAP) can be best described as “How the brain interprets auditory input from the ears” (Bellis, T.J. 2001). The brain’s role is to accurately process the information ...

Have you ever struggled to follow a conversation at a party? If listening and piecing together the conversation is a consistent problem, you might be suffering from auditory processing disorder (APD).
