The paper shows that learned associations shape neural activity dynamics, enhancing perceptual decisions through anticipatory visual and motor preparation.

The paper shows that conceptual information in the vmPFC is decoded before perceptual information in VVC during memory recall, with theta-band communication from vmPFC to VVC.

The paper investigates how visual and auditory memories are retrieved, finding that auditory retrieval relies more on internal representations while both use sensory reinstatement, with differences in hippocampal involvement.

This paper uses multi-sensory-evoked potentials and a support vector machine to classify aMCI with high accuracy, showing better performance when combining multiple modalities.

This study shows that congruent visual movements enhance music-induced pleasure through increased sensorimotor integration during vocal performances.

This study shows that older adults with long-term musical training exhibit less age-related upregulation of neural activity during speech-in-noise perception, maintaining youth-like connectivity patterns and better performance.

This study compares how older musicians and non-musicians maintain speech perception in noise through functional lateralization preservation or compensation.

This study shows that musical expertise in older adults improves neural alignment with young adults in sensorimotor regions, which predicts better audiovisual speech-in-noise perception.

This study shows that lip movements improve neural representations and connectivity in the speech dorsal stream, mediated by the microstructure of the arcuate fasciculus.
