Neural Basis of Auditory Cognition
Discovering how the brain encodes speech, language, and music in complex, naturalistic listening environments.
Welcome to the Neural Acoustic Processing Laboratory at Columbia University. Our research is dedicated to understanding and engineering the future of human auditory communication, and it is built on three core pillars:
Discovering how the brain encodes speech, language, and music in complex, naturalistic listening environments.
Creating real-time systems that decode auditory attention from neural signals, enabling assistive hearing and communication devices.
Building generative AI for speech and audio while using deep learning models as in silico platforms to probe brain computation.
