Despite growing clinical and neurobiological interest in the brain mechanisms that process
emotion in music, these mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Patients with …

Salient sensory experiences often have a strong emotional tone, but the neuropsychological
relations between perceptual characteristics of sensory objects and the affective information …

Despite much recent interest in the clinical neuroscience of music processing, the cognitive
organization of music as a domain of non-verbal knowledge has been little studied. Here we …

The cognitive mechanisms for the analysis of flavour information remain poorly understood.
Patients with semantic dementia (SD) could potentially provide a window on these …

Voice processing in neurodegenerative disease is poorly understood. Here we undertook a
systematic investigation of voice processing in a cohort of patients with clinical diagnoses …

There are few detailed studies of impaired voice recognition, or phonagnosia. Here we
describe two patients with progressive phonagnosia in the context of frontotemporal lobar …

Parsing of sound sources in the auditory environment or 'auditory scene analysis' is a
computationally demanding cognitive operation that is likely to be vulnerable to the …

The cognition of nonverbal sounds in dementia has been relatively little explored. Here we
undertook a systematic study of nonverbal sound processing in patient groups with …

The brain basis for music knowledge and the effects of disease on music cognition are
poorly understood. Here we present evidence for relatively preserved knowledge of music in …

Impairments of face processing occur frequently in frontotemporal lobar degeneration
(FTLD) but the neuroanatomical basis for these deficits has seldom been studied …
