Reading speech from still and moving faces: the neural substrates of visible speechGemma A Calvert
University Laboratory of Physiology, University of Oxford, UK
J Cogn Neurosci 15:57-70. 2003..When seen speech lacks natural time-varying characteristics, access to speech-processing systems in the left temporal lobe may be achieved predominantly via action-based speech representations, realized in the ventral premotor cortex...- Multisensory integration: methodological approaches and emerging principles in the human brainGemma A Calvert
University Laboratory of Physiology, University of Oxford, Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3PT, UK
J Physiol Paris 98:191-205. 2004.... 
Tool use changes multisensory interactions in seconds: evidence from the crossmodal congruency taskNicholas P Holmes
Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford, South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3UD, UK
Exp Brain Res 183:465-76. 2007..Such enhancements are likely due to the increased behavioural relevance of visual stimuli as each tool use action is prepared before execution...- Physical and physiological consequences of passive intra-oral shimmingRobert A Osterbauer
Oxford Centre for Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Brain (FMRIB, University of Oxford, John Radcliffe Hospital, Headington, Oxford OX3 9DU, UK
Neuroimage 29:245-53. 2006..The 'mouthshim' should only, therefore, be used where sensitivity in OFC regions is paramount... - Multisensory interactions follow the hands across the midline: evidence from a non-spatial visual-tactile congruency taskNicholas P Holmes
Department of Experimental Psychology, South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3UD, UK
Brain Res 1077:108-15. 2006..These results demonstrate, for the first time, significant spatial and postural modulations of crossmodal congruency effects in a non-spatial discrimination task... - Color of scents: chromatic stimuli modulate odor responses in the human brainRobert A Osterbauer
Oxford Centre for Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Brain, University of Oxford, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford OX3 9DU, UK
J Neurophysiol 93:3434-41. 2005..These findings demonstrate the neuronal correlates of olfactory response modulation by color cues in brain areas previously identified as encoding the hedonic value of smells... - Tool-use: capturing multisensory spatial attention or extending multisensory peripersonal space?Nicholas P Holmes
Department of Experimental Psychology, Oxford University, Oxford, UK Department of Psychology, Bath University, Bath, UK
Cortex 43:469-89. 2007..These results have implications for many of the cognitive neuroscientific studies of tool-use published to date... - Perceiving identical sounds as speech or non-speech modulates activity in the left posterior superior temporal sulcusRiikka Möttönen
Laboratory of Computational Engineering, Helsinki University of Technology, Finland
Neuroimage 30:563-9. 2006..Altogether, the present findings suggest that activation of the neural speech representations in the left STSp might be a pre-requisite for hearing sounds as speech... - Lexical and sentential processing in British Sign LanguageMairead MacSweeney
BBSU, Institute of Child Health, University College London, London, United Kingdom
Hum Brain Mapp 27:63-76. 2006..These data suggest that these left perisylvian regions are differentially associated with sentence processing, whatever the modality of the linguistic input... - Extending or projecting peripersonal space with tools? Multisensory interactions highlight only the distal and proximal ends of toolsNicholas P Holmes
Department of Experimental Psychology, South Parks Road, Oxford, OX13UD, Oxford University, UK
Neurosci Lett 372:62-7. 2004.... - Dissociating linguistic and nonlinguistic gestural communication in the brainMairead MacSweeney
Department of Human Communication Science, University College London, London, WC1N 1PG, UK
Neuroimage 22:1605-18. 2004..This suggests that the left posterior perisylvian cortex is of fundamental importance to language processing, regardless of the modality in which it is conveyed... - Multisensory representation of limb position in human premotor cortexDonna M Lloyd
FMRIB Centre, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford OX3 9DU, UK
Nat Neurosci 6:17-8. 2003..These data reveal important similarities between human and non-human primates in the network of brain areas involved in the multisensory representation of limb position... - Neural systems underlying British Sign Language and audio-visual English processing in native usersMairead MacSweeney
BBSU, Institute of Child Health, University College London, UK
Brain 125:1583-93. 2002..However, in the absence of auditory input this region can be recruited for visual processing... - Neural correlates of British sign language comprehension: spatial processing demands of topographic languageMairead MacSweeney
Institute of Child Health, University College London, UK
J Cogn Neurosci 14:1064-75. 2002.... - Evidence for asymmetric frontal-lobe involvement in episodic memory from functional magnetic resonance imaging and patients with unilateral frontal-lobe excisionsAndy C H Lee
MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit, 15 Chaucer Road, CB2 2EF, Cambridge, UK
Neuropsychologia 40:2420-37. 2002..This result suggests that the memory-related asymmetries observed during functional neuroimaging studies may not be critical for task performance... - Speechreading circuits in people born deafMairead MacSweeney
BBSU, Institute of Child Health, University College London, 30 Guilford Street, London WC1N 1EH, UK
Neuropsychologia 40:801-7. 2002..These data suggest that acoustic experience shapes the functional circuits for analysing speech. We speculate on the functional role, the posterior cingulate gyrus may play in speechreading by profoundly congenitally deaf people...
