Phonemic segmentation of narrative speech in human cerebral cortex (Gong et al., Nature Communications, 2023)
June 29, 2023
This fMRI study identifies the brain representation of single phonemes, diphones, and triphones during natural speech. Many regions in and around auditory cortex represent phonemes, and we identify regions where phonemic processing and lexical retrieval are intertwined. (Collaboration with the Theunissen lab at UCB.)
