An estimate of lifetime noise exposure was used as the primary predictor of performance on a range of behavioral tasks: frequency and intensity difference limens, amplitude modulation detection, interaural phase discrimination, the digit triplet spee...

Cortical cross-modal plasticity following deafness measured using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (2015)
Journal Article

Evidence from functional neuroimaging studies suggests that the auditory cortex can become more responsive to visual and somatosensory stimulation following deafness, and that this occurs predominately in the right hemisphere. Extensive cross-modal p... Read More about Cortical cross-modal plasticity following deafness measured using functional near-infrared spectroscopy.
