DOI: 10.1007/s00221-019-05549-4
Abstract: Normal aging is associated with decline of the sensorimotor mechanisms that support movement function in the human brain. In this study, we used behavioral and event-related potential (ERP) recordings to investigate the effects of normal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-018-4889-4
Abstract: IntroductionThe introduction of neonatal hearing screening and the increasingly early age at which children can receive a cochlear implant has intensified the need for a validated questionnaire to assess the speech production of children aged… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bandl.2017.01.013
Abstract: HighlightsDirect cortical recordings of insula activity during speech production are reported.Compared to the insula, frontal and post‐central regions had greater activity during speech.Results support contemporary models’ emphasis on sensorimotor areas in speech production. Abstract The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2022.105051
Abstract: This study investigates the dynamics of speech envelope tracking during speech production, listening and self-listening. We use a paradigm in which participants listen to natural speech (Listening), produce natural speech (Speech Production), and listen to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsv.2018.05.046
Abstract: Abstract Flow-induced vibrations of flexible surfaces driven by coherent vortical structures are ubiquitous in engineering and biological flows; from the extraction of fluidic energy via oscillating electro-active polymers to vocal fold dynamics during voiced speech… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2017.03.006
Abstract: ABSTRACT Current understanding of the cortical mechanisms of speech perception and production stems mostly from studies that focus on single words or sentences. However, it has been suggested that processing of real‐life connected speech may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.116788
Abstract: How the human brain uses self-generated auditory information during speech production is rather unsettled. Current theories of language production consider a feedback monitoring system that monitors the auditory consequences of speech output and an internal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-04357-6
Abstract: Stuttering affects nearly 1% of the population worldwide and often has life-altering negative consequences, including poorer mental health and emotional well-being, and reduced educational and employment achievements. Over two decades of neuroimaging research reveals clear… read more here.
