The developing brain dramatically rewires in response to the external world during early ‘critical periods’, but this capacity diminishes with adulthood. A clear advantage of time-limited critical periods is that the developing brain circuits are assembled to represent the relevant aspects of our...

Our unique perception of the acoustic world evolves with experience throughout our lifespan. As neuroscientists we believe that perceptual differences in hearing, including pathological perturbations of our ability to accurately perceive our sensory environment, partly arise from variable circuitry...
