▼ Während mittels bildgebender Verfahren ein Netzwerk von Hirnregionen identifiziert werden konnte, das der Wahrnehmung und Wiedergabe von Lauten dient, ist die genaue Funktion einzelner Knoten innerhalb dieses Netzwerkes unbekannt. Für die willkürliche Kontrolle der menschlichen Stimme postulieren wir eine kausale Rolle des Gyrus temporalis superior posterior (pSTG) und des Gyrus frontalis inferior posterior (pIFG) der linken und rechten Hemisphäre. In dieser Arbeit wird die Funktion dieser Areale durch reversible Läsionsstudien mithilfe der transkraniellen Gleichstromstimulation (tDCS) untersucht. Methoden: In zwei Experimenten, bestehend aus je fünf separaten Stimulationen, erhielten die Probanden je eine kathodische Stimulation über dem pSTG und dem pIFG jeder Hemisphäre sowie eine Placebostimulation. Im ersten Experiment sollten die Probanden (n = 10) eine Tonfolge wiedergeben, wobei die Genauigkeit der Tonwiedergabe nach erfolgter tDCS gemessen wurde. Im zweiten Experiment hörten die Probanden (n = 15) sich selbst summen. Dieses Feedback wurde unerwartet in der Tonhöhe verändert. Die Kompensation zum transponierten Feedback nach Hirnstimulation wurde gemessen und mit Daten von Amusikern (n = 8), die keine Hirnstimulation erhielten, verglichen. Alle Daten wurden digital aufgenommen, weiterverarbeitet und ausgewertet. Ergebnisse: Nach Stimulation über dem linken pIFG und dem rechten pSTG wird die Tonhöhe einer zu imitierenden Tonfolge weniger exakt wiedergegeben als unter Placebostimulation. Des Weiteren nehmen alle nicht-amusischen Probanden ungewollte Veränderungen im Feedback ihrer eigenen Stimme wahr und kompensieren ohne Stimulation hierfür. Amusiker hingegen zeigen keine Reaktion auf verändertes Feedback. Reduziert man die neuronale Erregbarkeit in dem linken pIFG und dem rechten pSTG, kompensieren musikalisch geschulte Probanden in geringerem Maße als ohne Stimulation. Probanden ohne musikalisches Training zeigen keinen Einfluss der tDCS auf das Ausmaß der Kompensation. Unabhängig von musikalischem Training reagieren jedoch alle Probanden nach kathodischer tDCS über dem rechten pSTG langsamer auf das veränderte Feedback ihrer eigenen Stimme. Fazit: In dieser Arbeit konnte gezeigt werden, dass sowohl der Gyrus frontalis inferior posterior als auch der Gyrus temporalis superior posterior wichtige Knotenpunkte in einem bihemisphäriellen Netzwerk der Stimmkontrolle sind. Die neuronalen Mechanismen einer effizienten Stimmhöhenregulation sind zu einem gewissen Maße trainingsabhängig. tDCS ist eine geeignete Methode, die Lautproduktion zu modulieren und sollte vermehrt in der Therapie von Sprechstörungen zum Einsatz kommen.

▼ Humans are born with a sensitivity to numerical magnitude. In literate cultures, these numerical intuitions are associated with a symbolic notation (e.g..Hindu-Arabic numerals). While a growing body of neuroscientific research has been conducted to elucidate commonalities between symbolic (e.g. Hinud-Arabic numerals) and non-symbolic (e.g. arrays of objects) representations, relatively little is known about the neural correlates specific to the symbolic processing of numerical magnitude. To address this, I conducted the three fMRI experiments contained within this thesis to characterize the neuroanatomical correlates of the auditory, visual, audiovisual, and semantic processing of numerical symbols. In Experiment 1, the neural correlates of symbolic and non-symbolic number were contrasted to reveal that the left angular and superior temporal gyri responded specifically to numerals, while the right posterior superior parietal lobe only responded to non-symbolic arrays. Moreover, the right intraparietal sulcus (IPS) was activated by both formats. The results reflect divergent encoding pathways that converge upon a common representation across formats. In Experiment 2, the neural response to Hindu-Arabic numerals and Chinese numerical ideographs was recorded in individuals who could read both notations and a control group who could read only the numerals. A between-groups contrast revealed semantic processing of ideographs in the right IPS, while asemantic visual processing was found in the left fusiform gyrus. In contrast to the ideographs, the semantic processing of numerals was associated with left IPS activity. The role of these brain regions in the semantic and asemantic representation of numerals is discussed. In Experiment 3, the neural response of the visual, auditory, and audiovisual processing of numerals and letters was measured. The regions associated with visual and auditory responses to letters and numerals were highly similar. In contrast, the audiovisual response to numerals recruited a region of the right supramarginal gyrus, while the audiovisual letters activated left visual regions. In addition, an effect of congruency in the audiovisual pairs was comparable across numeral-number name pairs and letter-letter name pairs, but absent in letter-speech sound pairs. Taken together, these three experiments provide new insights into how the brain processes numerical symbols at different levels of description.

▼ The brain is a physical system that can perform intelligent computations. We are interested in nature of those computations to understand how the brain does intelligent things. To that end we have focused on two particularly fruitful questions that were tractable given the current state of knowledge and resources: What is the organization of processing in human speech centers? And, how does the brain solve the cocktail party problem?To address the first question, we recorded superior temporal gyrus activity in awake human subjects passively listening to speech stimuli using electrocorticography. The high spatial and temporal resolution of this recording technique combined with maximally informative dimension analysis made it possible to compute high density spectrotemporal receptive field maps in a region of the brain specialized for speech perception. Based on these maps, we found that human superior temporal gyrus has a strong modulotopic organization - a higher order analog of tonotopic organization that has not been previously identified in any human or non-human auditory area. To investigate the mechanisms by which neural systems solve the cocktail party problem, we created animals that are specialists at extracting vocalization information in the face of by noise-rearing rats and testing them behaviorally to show specialization. Through single unit recordings from primary auditory cortex, we identified a subpopulation of neurons that can extract vocalization information in the face of noise. Although the prevalence of these neurons is the same in both groups of animals, neurons from specialized animals extract information at significantly higher rates. Further receptive field analysis will give insight to the underlying mechanism of this ability. This work demonstrates the ability to create animals specialized at solving the cocktail party problem and a method to identify neurons that contribute to this specialization. This approach can be applied to different classes of noise to generate and refine models of cocktail party processing.

▼ Speech perception routinely takes place in noisy or degraded listening environments, leading to ambiguity in the identity of the speech token. Here, I present one review paper and two experimental papers that highlight cognitive and visual speech contributions to the listening process, particularly in challenging listening environments. First, I survey the literature linking audiometric age-related hearing loss and cognitive decline and review the four proposed causal mechanisms underlying this link. I argue that future research in this area requires greater consideration of the functional overlap between hearing and cognition. I also present an alternative framework for understanding causal relationships between age-related declines in hearing and cognition, with emphasis on the interconnected nature of hearing and cognition and likely contributions from multiple causal mechanisms. I also provide a number of testable hypotheses to examine how impairments in one domain may affect the other. In my first experimental study, I examine the direct contribution of working memory (through a cognitive training manipulation) on speech in noise comprehension in older adults. My results challenge the efficacy of cognitive training more generally, and also provide support for the contribution of sentence context in reducing working memory load. My findings also challenge the ubiquitous use of the Reading Span test as a pure test of working memory. In a second experimental (fMRI) study, I examine the role of attention in audiovisual speech integration, particularly when the acoustic signal is degraded. I demonstrate that attentional processes support audiovisual speech integration in the middle and superior temporal gyri, as well as the fusiform gyrus. My results also suggest that the superior temporal sulcus is sensitive to intelligibility enhancement, regardless of how this benefit is obtained (i.e., whether it is obtained through visual speech information or speech clarity). In addition, I also demonstrate that both the cingulo-opercular network and motor speech areas are recruited in difficult listening conditions. Taken together, these findings augment our understanding of cognitive contributions to the listening process and demonstrate that memory, working memory, and executive control networks may flexibly be recruited in order to meet listening demands in challenging environments.

▼ Background: Planum Temporale (PT) is a crucial neuroauditory structure located in the dorsal superior temporal plane (STP) posterior to Heschl’s gyrus (HG). The PT has been implicated in complex auditory function and is well known for its preponderance of leftward asymmetry in normal brains and classic “pie- shaped” morphology. While a majority of cases have easily identifiable PT and HG, there exist some cases in which distinguishability of these two structures is difficult due to morphological variation. The goal of this study is to create a taxonomy of PT morphological features in order to improve the sometimes difficult identification and differentiation of PT from surrounding structures. Methods: A total of 50 (100 hemispheres) healthy intact, high-resolution T1- weighted brain MRIs were obtained from Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS) and included in this retrospective study. There were 28 women and 22 men, all right-handed. Ages ranged from 18-57 (mean=26.44) years. A 3D cortical surface mesh (grey matter) for each brain was generated using FreeSurfer and manipulated to view the STP using BrainVISA Anatomist neuroimaging software. The PT was isolated from surrounding structures based on pre-defined anatomical criteria and subsequent surface area measurements, linear measurements and qualitative measures were made. Results: A total of four PT configurations were identified: (1) Pie-shaped [45%], (2) Trapezoid-shaped [27%], (3) Rectangular-shaped [19%], and (4) None [9%]. Mean surface areas of measurable PT configurations were: 511.96 mm2 for “Pie-shaped” (n=45), 517.36 mm2 for “Trapezoid-shaped” (n=27) and 472.12mm2 for “Rectangular-shaped” (n=19). The fourth category, “None” (n=9), was not calculable. There were significantly more “Trapezoid-shaped” PTs in females (p<.05). The “None” category occurred significantly more in males (p<.05) and in the right hemisphere (p<.05). Furthermore, the left hemisphere demonstrated significantly greater surface area for “Pie-shaped” PTs (p<.05). Conclusion: We believe that the proposed classifications is the first step in creating a comprehensive taxonomy of the STP. This will aid neuroanatomists, clinicians and students in terms of differentiation of sometimes complex topography of the STP.
