Temporal analysis in the macaque and the songbird auditory system using fMRI. University of Antwerp
The aim of this project is to study how different amplitude modulation rates are processed in the ascending auditory cortex of macaques and songbirds and to determine if this processing is lateralised. To answer these questions, functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) will be used. The work will shed new light on fundamental mechanisms of auditory temporal analysis of general relevance to the analysis of ethological sounds in different ...
