title = "Cortical coding of auditory features",
abstract = "How the cerebral cortex encodes auditory features of biologically important sounds, including speech and music, is one of the most important questions in auditory neuroscience. The pursuit to understand related neural coding mechanisms in the mammalian auditory cortex can be traced back several decades to the early exploration of the cerebral cortex. Significant progress in this field has been made in the past two decades with new technical and conceptual advances. This article reviews the progress and challenges in this area of research.",

note = "Funding Information: I would like to acknowledge contributions by former and current students and postdocs in the Laboratory of Auditory Neurophysiology at Johns Hopkins University ( JHU) School of Medicine, whose dedications to science have made this review possible. In particular, Thomas Lu, Li Liang, Ross Snider, and Ashley Pistorio made significant contributions to the development of the marmoset neurophysiology model. Our research has been supported by NIH grants DC003180, DC005808, and DC014503 and by a US Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (to X. Wang). This article is dedicated to the twentieth anniversary of the first chronic neuronal recordings in marmosets at JHU that began on April 2, 1998.
