Convolutional neural networks can decode whether a person is listening to a speaker on the left or right solely from 1 to 2s of EEG data.

Recordings of ear muscles in humans show that ears attempt to pivot in the direction that requires attention.

Brain responses in humans demonstrate that the analysis of crowded acoustic scenes is based on a mechanism that infers the predictability of sensory information and up-regulates processing for reliable signals.

When all features of conflicting sensory input are task-irrelevant, the brain can still process its sensory information, whereas conflict detection requires that minimally one stimulus feature is task-relevant or associated with a response.

The different laminar profiles observed across the cortical depth for multisensory and attentional influences indicate partly distinct neural circuitries of information-flow control.

Stimulating one side of parietal cortex using an appropriate frequency of alternating current interferes with attention to a sound stream from a location on the opposite side of a space.

Cocktail-party listening performance in normal-hearing listeners is associated with the ability to focus attention on a target stimulus in the presence of distractors.

Across species and domains of decision-making, pupil-linked phasic arousal predicts suppression biases in the accumulation of evidence leading up to a choice.

Orbitofrontal cortex lesions impact the neural correlates of detection of auditory regularity violation at two hierarchical levels of rule abstraction, providing a novel perspective on the role of the orbitofrontal cortex in auditory predictive processing.

Individuals with reversed congenital cataracts perceived visual events as occurring earlier than auditory and tactile events revealing that cross-modal temporal biases depend on sensory experience during an early sensitive period.
