This project investigates how deafness affects the brain's auditory cortex and its ability to adapt to sensory changes. It aims to determine the relationship between the age of onset and duration of deafness with cross-modal plasticity and functional modularity in auditory processing.
One of the most striking demonstrations of experience-dependent neuroplasticity comes from studies of deaf individuals in whom the temporal ‘auditory’ cortex changes its functional tuning to support visual or tactile functions.
Age-of-onset and duration of deafness is thought to affect the extent of cross-modal plasticity (CP) in auditory cortex, with earlier onset and longer durations being associated with increased CP.
Importantly, previous studies have suggested that the presence of such CP m…
