Topic: voice-sensitive cortical areas

Understanding the neural underpinnings of social communication and emotional processing in non-human primates remains a significant challenge in neuroscience. In primates, studies using neuroimaging techniques such as fMRI, and electrophysiological recordings have identified several voice-sensitive cortical areas, i.e., the so-called voice patches. These voice patches are believed to be crucial for processing and distinguishing various vocalizations made by individuals of the same species (see for review Belin et al. 2018; and Bondin et al. 2021). In this study, we used fMRI (0.6 isotropic vox
