The role of temporal coherence and temporal predictability in the build-up of auditory grouping (2022)
Journal Article
Sollini, J., Poole, K. C., Blauth-Muszkowski, D., & Bizley, J. K. (2022). The role of temporal coherence and temporal predictability in the build-up of auditory grouping. Scientific Reports, 12, Article 14493. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-18583-0

The cochlea decomposes sounds into separate frequency channels, from which the auditory brain must reconstruct the auditory scene. To do this the auditory system must make decisions about which frequency information should be grouped together, and wh...

Burden of rare variants in synaptic genes in patients with severe tinnitus: An exome based extreme phenotype study (2021)
Journal Article
Espinosa-Sanchez, J. M., Lopez-Escamez, J. A., Cederroth, C. R., Canlon, B., May, P., Aran, I., …Gallego-Martinez, A. (2021). Burden of rare variants in synaptic genes in patients with severe tinnitus: An exome based extreme phenotype study. EBioMedicine, 66, Article 103309. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ebiom.2021.103309

Background: tinnitus is a heterogeneous condition associated with audiological and/or mental disorders. Chronic, severe tinnitus is reported in 1% of the population and it shows a relevant heritability, according to twins, adoptees and familial aggr...

Seasonal weight changes in laboratory ferrets (2020)
Journal Article
Jones, E. J., Poole, K. C., Sollini, J., Town, S. M., & Bizley, J. K. (2020). Seasonal weight changes in laboratory ferrets. PLoS ONE, 15(8), Article e0232733. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0232733

Ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) are a valuable animal model used in biomedical research. Like many animals, ferrets undergo significant variation in body weight seasonally, affected by photoperiod, and these variations complicate the use weight as an...

ON-OFF receptive fields in auditory cortex diverge during development and contribute to directional sweep selectivity (2018)
Journal Article
Sollini, J., Chapuis, G. A., Clopath, C., & Chadderton, P. (2018). ON-OFF receptive fields in auditory cortex diverge during development and contribute to directional sweep selectivity. Nature Communications, 9, Article 2084. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-04548-3

Neurons in the auditory cortex exhibit distinct frequency tuning to the onset and offset of sounds, but the cause and significance of ON and OFF receptive field (RF) organisation are not understood. Here we demonstrate that distinct ON and OFF freque... Read More about ON-OFF receptive fields in auditory cortex diverge during development and contribute to directional sweep selectivity.

Comodulation Enhances Signal Detection via Priming of Auditory Cortical Circuits (2016)
Journal Article
Sollini, J., & Chadderton, P. (2016). Comodulation Enhances Signal Detection via Priming of Auditory Cortical Circuits. Journal of Neuroscience, 36(49), 12299-12311. https://doi.org/10.1523/jneurosci.0656-16.2016

Acoustic environments are composed of complex overlapping sounds that the auditory system is required to segregate into discrete perceptual objects. The functions of distinct auditory processing stations in this challenging task are poorly understood...
