The paper tests newborns' ability to categorize rhythms, finding neural responses that suggest innate predispositions and early plasticity in rhythm processing.

This study investigates how the brain categorizes musical rhythms using EEG, showing automatic categorical representation despite early auditory processing not reflecting these categories.

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

This study uses EEG and an oddball paradigm to show the brain automatically categorizes non-verbal vocal emotions independently of acoustic features.

The paper uses FPAS and EEG to show robust voice-selective brain responses independent of low-level acoustic features, demonstrating automatic voice categorization.

This study shows that occipital cortex in early blind individuals synchronizes with speech acoustic fluctuations and has altered connectivity related to speech intelligibility.
