The paper investigates ocular speech tracking in blind and sighted individuals, finding it is not modulated by speech intelligibility and has two frequency-specific components influenced by visual experience.

The paper investigates how pupil dilation and neural activity reflect different aspects of predictive processing during language comprehension, finding dissociable responses to lexical surprise and semantic error.

This study identifies accelerated neural aging as a risk factor for tinnitus by analyzing MEG and structural imaging data from multiple datasets.

The paper shows brain-body synchrony acts as a temporal gate for conscious access across sensory systems by aligning neural activity with cardiac and respiratory cycles.

The paper shows that individuals with developmental dyslexia show reduced flexibility in neural speech tracking frequency shifts in response to speech intelligibility changes, linked to phonological awareness and reading deficits.

The paper investigates how pre- and post-stimulus neural states predict perceived audio-visual synchrony using MEG and frequency-tagging analysis.

This study shows that eye movements track unheard speech during silent lip-reading and relates to hearing experience, with differences between hearing and deaf groups.

The paper shows that individual differences in neural speech tracking benefit from lip movements correlate with worse performance when visual speech is blocked by a mask.

This study uses MEG to show that auditory cortex hemispheres specialize in processing local sound features versus summary statistics, with right hemisphere involvement in both and left hemisphere engagement in summary statistics for long sounds.

The paper models Ocular Response Functions (ORFs) using MEG and eye tracking to reveal neural signatures of oculomotor events and their relationship with neural activity.

This paper investigates predictive processing during sleep by analyzing neural responses to predictable and random tones using EEG and MEG, finding that predictive patterns fade as sleep progresses.

The paper investigates whether neural responses to omitted sounds in tone sequences depend on the predictability of omissions, finding that frequency-specific activity occurs independently of omission predictability.

The paper shows that eye movements track acoustic features of attended speech, differentiating targets from distractors and relating to speech intelligibility.

The paper investigates whether reduced hearing ability improves visual speech extraction using a neural speech tracking paradigm and finds no such improvement.

The paper investigates the relationship between prediction tendencies, eye movements, and neural speech tracking, proposing a unified framework for understanding speech processing.

This study investigates how neural speech tracking shifts from syllable rate to modulation rate as speech intelligibility decreases using magnetoencephalography.

The paper investigates how involuntary spatial attention shifts caused by unexpected sounds affect reaction times and alpha power, showing distraction is influenced by the spatial relationship between sounds and targets.

This study shows face masks impair audiovisual speech tracking but not audio-only speech, highlighting the role of visual speech in speech processing.

This study shows that individual prediction tendencies in sensory modalities do not generalise across modalities, with poor internal consistency between auditory and visual modalities.

This study uses MEG and TRFs to show how speech intelligibility affects the temporal dynamics of neural speech tracking, revealing differential impacts at different time windows.

This study examines network topology in brain tumor patients with and without structural epilepsy using MEG, finding altered network parameters associated with epilepsy but not tumor type.

The paper investigates age-related changes in cortical 1/f dynamics and finds they are influenced by cardiac activity, challenging the interpretation of aperiodic signals as purely cortical.

The paper quantifies individual auditory prediction tendencies and shows they facilitate cortical speech tracking and interact with noise and word surprisal.

This study distinguishes neural coding for local and summary representations of sound textures using EEG and computational models.

This study shows that interaural attention causes phase opposition in cochlear theta activity without affecting amplitude, indicating distinct roles for intermodal and interaural attention in auditory processing.

This study shows that selective attention modulates theta-range auditory nerve activity in humans, with a classifier decoding attended modality from single-trial data.

The paper shows that pre-stimulus connectivity in the FFA predicts face perception during binocular rivalry.

The paper investigates how the visual cortex tracks unheard acoustic speech details from lip movements and shows that this ability declines with age, particularly for formant frequencies.

This study shows that face masks impair neural reconstruction of acoustic speech features and higher-level segmentational features, especially in challenging listening conditions with a distractor speaker.

The paper investigates cochlear activity during silent cue-target intervals and finds theta rhythmic patterns correlated with attentional alpha modulations.
