Neural encoding of auditory features during music perception and imagery

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Stéphanie Martin

Despite many behavioral and neuroimaging investigations, it remains unclear how the human cortex represents spectrotemporal sound features during auditory imagery, and how this representation compares to auditory perception. To assess this, we recorded ele ...
