The auditory brainstem plays a crucial role in speech-in-noise listening, refining numerous acoustic features such as pitch and spatial location under continual descending influence from cortex. However, the difficulty of characterizing brainstem activity during continuous speech listening has obscured its functional r...

Speech perception ability in a cocktail party environment is highly variable, even for people with clinically healthy hearing. The mechanisms of these differences are poorly understood. A possible reason for these differences could be due to the neural mechanisms of auditory attention. This investigation aims to quanti...

Difficulties understanding speech in noise remain a common complaint even among listeners with normal hearing sensitivity, highlighting the need for objective, more effective measures of real-world listening. The goal of this study was to validate the use of a novel, chirped-speech (Cheech) stimulus—continuous, natural...

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) offer a promising solution to speech loss due to neurological injury by decoding intended speech directly from brain activity. While recent BCIs have restored high-accuracy text-based communication, they fail to provide instantaneous voice output essential for the natural flow of conver...
