Institute faculty Xiaoming Zhou published a paper in Cerebral Cortex, revealing that age-related changes in cortical sound-azimuth selectivity can be reversed with training. These findings offer the possibility that behavioral training can be used for treatment of declines in auditory perception, which are common symptoms of aging.
