The paper investigates how basal ganglia activity encodes speech production and ambient noise levels in humans, finding distinct neural populations for each.

This study uses fMRI to identify brain regions involved in number processing and links reduced sensorimotor involvement during number tasks to higher math skills in adults.

The paper shows that spike-phase coupling between subthalamic nucleus neurons and posterior opercular cortex predicts speech sound accuracy during speech production.

The paper investigates how subthalamic nucleus neurons encode phoneme and sequence features of speech in Parkinson's patients during deep brain stimulation.

This study maps word- and face-selective regions in human ventral temporal cortex using intracranial recordings and fMRI, revealing distinct temporal dynamics and spatial organization.

The paper investigates thalamic activity during reading aloud, finding lateralized gamma activity related to lexical status processing.

This study shows that painful electric shocks immediately after auditory words reduce next-day recollection of those words, suggesting pain disrupts memory encoding.

This study shows that non-painful auditory items presented in a context with painful electrical stimulation are less well remembered than those in a pain-free context.

The paper examines high gamma activity in the subthalamic nucleus and sensorimotor cortex during speech production, finding articulator-specific signals in both regions with similar timing but different topographical organization.

This study shows that the left mid-ventral temporal cortex (lmVTC) individuates real words through interactions with anterior temporal and visual regions, distinguishing them from pseudowords and other stimuli.

The paper examines subthalamic nucleus neuron activity during speech production, finding distinct firing rate changes related to speech planning and execution.
