If the brain did not account for this difference, it would be much harder for us to tell where sounds came from, and how they are related to what we see.</p> Mon, 10 May 2021 14:02:28 +0000 shawn.hayward@mcgill.ca 4989 at /neuro /neuro/auditory-brain-responses <p>Scientists at the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital at Æ»¹ûÒùÔº have made an important discovery about the human auditory system and how to study it, findings that could lead to better testing and diagnosis of hearing-related disorders.</p> <p>The researchers detected frequency-following responses (FFR) coming from a part of the brain not previously known to emit them. FFRs are neural signals generated in the brain when people hear sounds.</p> Tue, 05 Apr 2016 17:37:13 +0000 shawn.hayward@mcgill.ca 1975 at /neuro /neuro/article/open-science-research/open-software-neuroscience Brainstorm advances fundamental and preclinical electrophysiology research Wed, 23 Oct 2019 17:10:47 +0000 Sylvain Baillet 4072 at /neuro /neuro/article/introducing-open-science-meg MEG-BIDS will enhance data sharing, driving important research forward Thu, 16 Aug 2018 20:50:35 +0000 Victor Swoboda 3138 at /neuro
