The paper uses cortical cooling to show that visual cortex inputs shape auditory cortex responses through direct excitation and network modulation in ferrets.

The paper investigates how inhibitory neurons in the mouse auditory cortex modulate context-dependent deviance responses to sound patterns, revealing a specific role for VIP neurons in enhancing deviance detection in regular contexts.

The paper studies how individual learning strategies during category learning affect category boundaries in mice.

The paper investigates how SST and VIP inhibitory neurons in the auditory cortex differentially shape population codes for sound intensity through optogenetic stimulation and calcium imaging.

The paper shows that dynamic contrast adaptation in auditory cortex predicts perception of sounds in noise.

This study inactivates ferret auditory cortex using cooling or optogenetics to assess its role in spatial and non-spatial hearing, finding impairments in vowel discrimination in noise but not in clean or spatially separated conditions.

The paper identifies a neuronal code in auditory cortex that predicts inter-subject variability in fear specificity before learning.

The paper analyzes spontaneous neural activity in mouse auditory cortex over time using network science, showing modular structure and a stable core of correlated cells.

This study investigates the role of auditory cortex in degraded speech sound discrimination in noise using inactivation and electrophysiology in ferrets, showing cortical contributions and adaptation mechanisms.

The paper shows that neurons in primary auditory cortex represent sound source locations independently of spatial cues and supports a labelled line model over a two-channel model for spatial perception.

The paper compares performance in relative localisation tasks using auditory, visual, and auditory-visual stimuli, finding that multisensory stimuli improve performance across all locations.

The paper shows that visual signals enhance auditory cortex representations when temporally coherent with sound, supporting multisensory binding for auditory scene analysis.

The paper investigates how the auditory system represents sound identity in a way that is tolerant to transformations, finding that neural representations are multivariate, multiplexed, and modulated by attention and experience.
