A study led by a speech neuroscientist at The University of Texas at Dallas sheds light on how damage from stroke disrupts the brain mechanisms required for fluent speech. The research, published in ...

A new study shows that while humans struggle to identify AI-generated voices, their brains rapidly adapt to detect subtle acoustic differences between real and deepfake speech.

Biologically relevant information in acoustic signals often is present in its temporal structure. For example, the temporal relationships of particular acoustic elements are important for identifying ...

The organs of the vestibular, auditory and lateral line systems rely on a common strategy for the stimulation of their primary receptors, the hair cells: stimuli induce shear between hair cell ...

We are in sound overload, even when we are not consciously aware of it. Those with misophonia may be casualties of the overwhelming environment.

Porpoises are entirely dependent on their hearing for survival. They navigate, hunt, and communicate by emitting rapid click ...

A team of Chinese scientists has found more evidence that most people cannot tell the difference between real speech and fakes generated by artificial intelligence even if some training is given to ...

A nationally representative study finds 65% of people with misophonia carry at least one additional psychiatric diagnosis — with depression, anxiety, and PTSD occurring at rates two to 37 times higher ...
