We seek to understand brain mechanisms that enable us to listen effectively in complex sound environments. We're particularly interested in how the context in which a sound occurs influences its representation in the auditory cortex and thalamus; how temporally varying sounds are encoded in the activity of neural populations; and how different cortical cell types, cortical layers, cortical fields, and thalamic subdivisions contribute to sound perception.
