Progressive degradation and subsequent refinement of acoustic representations in the adult auditory cortexShaowen Bao
Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, California 94143 0732, USA
J Neurosci 23:10765-75. 2003....
Early experience impairs perceptual discriminationYoon K Han
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, 210X Barker Hall, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA
Nat Neurosci 10:1191-7. 2007..These results indicate that early experience shapes sensory perception. The same plasticity processes may be important in optimizing phonemic representations in humans...
Temporal plasticity in the primary auditory cortex induced by operant perceptual learningShaowen Bao
Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, California 94143 0732, USA
Nat Neurosci 7:974-81. 2004..We conclude that this auditory perceptual learning results in improvements in temporal processing, which may be mediated by enhanced cortical response dynamics...
Feature-dependent sensitive periods in the development of complex sound representationMichele N Insanally
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720, USA
J Neurosci 29:5456-62. 2009..These results indicate that cortical representations of different acoustic features are shaped by complex sounds in a series of distinct sensitive periods...
Pulsed noise experience disrupts complex sound representationsMichele N Insanally
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 3190, USA
J Neurophysiol 103:2611-7. 2010..The different effects induced here by pulsed noise and previously by FM sweeps further indicate that plasticity in cortical complex sound representations is specific to the sensory input...
Critical period window for spectral tuning defined in the primary auditory cortex (A1) in the ratEtienne de Villers-Sidani
W M Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience, Coleman Laboratory, Department of Otolaryngology, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
J Neurosci 27:180-9. 2007..We also found that postnatal sound exposure in this epoch led to striking alterations in the cortical representation of sound intensity...
Disruption of primary auditory cortex by synchronous auditory inputs during a critical periodLi I Zhang
Keck Center of Integrative Neurosciences, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143 0732, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:2309-14. 2002..Thus, patterned auditory inputs appear to play a crucial role in shaping neuronal processing/decoding circuits in the primary auditory cortex during a critical period...
Suppression of cortical representation through backward conditioningShaowen Bao
Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:1405-8. 2003....
Distributed representation of perceptual categories in the auditory cortexHeesoo Kim
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 3190, USA
J Comput Neurosci 24:277-90. 2008..These results indicate that enlarged stimulus representations in the sensory cortex may be a mechanism for categorical perceptual learning...
Selective increase in representations of sounds repeated at an ethological rateHeesoo Kim
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California, Berkeley, Berkeley, California 94720 3190, USA
J Neurosci 29:5163-9. 2009..Furthermore, our results indicate that spectral and temporal plasticity can be separately engaged depending on the statistical properties of the input stimuli...
Development of spectral and temporal response selectivity in the auditory cortexEdward F Chang
Coleman Memorial Laboratory, Department of Otolaryngology, W M Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143 0444, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:16460-5. 2005..They were subsequently renormalized when animals were returned to standard housing conditions as adults...
Homeostatic plasticity drives tinnitus perception in an animal modelSungchil Yang
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 108:14974-9. 2011..Enhancing sensory input through map reorganization may plausibly alleviate phantom sensation...
Cerebellar cortical inhibition and classical eyeblink conditioningShaowen Bao
Neuroscience Program, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089-2520, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:1592-7. 2002..Together, these results suggest that different aspects of the memories for eyeblink CRs are encoded in the cerebellar cortex and the cerebellar deep nuclei...
