2 Computational Sensorimotor Systems Laboratory Current & Former Students Juanjuan Xiang Jiachen Zhuo Nai Ding Harsha Agashe Huan Luo Maria Chait Nayef Ahmar Ling Ma Minsuk Park Faculty Collaborators David Poeppel Shihab Shamma Alain de Cheveigné Current & Former Postdocs Dan Hertz Yadong Wang Mounya Elhilali Lab Staff Jeff Walker Ray Shantanu Supported by NIH: NIDCD, NIBIB, NIA

3 Outline Magnetoencephalography (MEG) as a tool of Non-Invasive Auditory Physiology MEG in the Frequency Domain Neural & Behavioral Correlates of Auditory Attention

4 Magnetoencephalography (MEG) Non-invasive, Passive, Silent Neural Recordings Simultaneous Whole-Head Recording (~200 sensors) Sensitivity high: ~100 ft (10 13 Tesla) low: ~10 4 ~10 6 neurons Temporal Resolution: ~1 ms Spatial Resolution coarse: ~1 cm ambiguous

5 Functional Imaging Hemodynamic techniques Non-invasive recording from human brain (Functional brain imaging) Electromagnetic techniques Functional magnetic resonance imaging fmri Positron emission tomography PET Electroencephalography EEG Magnetoencephalography MEG Excellent spatial resolution ( ~ 1-2 mm) Poor temporal resolution ( ~ 1 s) PET, EEG require across-subject averaging fmri and MEG can capture effects in single subjects Poor spatial resolution ( ~ 1 cm) Excellent temporal resolution ( ~ 1 ms)

12 MEG as Auditory Physiology Tool Advantages of humans over animals Subjects can be rented (by the hour) Subjects can be trained in minutes Better grasp of subjects perceptual space (?) Access to Speech & Language processing (?) Advantage of Whole Head Recording Disadvantage of Neural Source Localization Coarseness/Ambiguity in Source Location Blindness to Many Kinds of Coding Neutral Aspects Neural Source is Dendritic Current (not Spikes) Humans not typical mammals (?) New Technique/Immature Analysis Tools

13 Outline Magnetoencephalography (MEG) as a tool of Non-Invasive Auditory Physiology MEG in the Frequency Domain Neural & Behavioral Correlates of Auditory Attention

14 An Alternative to Time: Frequency Use Stimuli localized in Frequency, not time vs. = t t f Examine Response at Same Frequency Steady State Response (SSR) Frequency Response/Transfer Function

15 Frequency Response Stimulus 32 Hz Modulation time (s) Response 5 Single MEG Channel frequency (Hz) s (concatenated) frequency (Hz) Precise Phase-Locking: 0.01 Hz Little trial-to-trial jitter Amplitude + Phase...

16 Whole Head Steady State Response 32 Hz Simon & Wang J. Neuroscience Methods 2005

17 Complex Equivalent-Current Dipoles Two Dipole Fit Phase Strength Sharpness Orientations Physiologically Simple Current Sources: η = 0
