Project Summary/Abstract
When we produce speech, the auditory system reduces its response to what it expects to hear based on the
motor plan. This allows the auditory system to remain vigilant of externally produced sounds while also
enabling it to detect errors between the expected and actual produced sounds. Disruption of this auditory
feedback mechanism during speech production has been implicated in speech disorders like persistent
developmental stuttering and apraxia of speech as well as in mental health disorders like autism and
schizophrenia. Previous research has suggested that much, but not all, of the auditory feedback comparison is
performed in auditory cortex. Other auditory feedback processing is likely performed by earlier subcortical
auditory structures, but the precise mechanisms and locations of this processing has not been explicitly
investigated. In this project, I propose three aims for investigating the structure and function of subcortical
auditory structures in auditory feedback processing. Aim 1 is to demonstrate the contribution of
subcortical auditory structures to general motorinduced suppression. Using two complementary brain
imaging techniques, we will test whether generating a sound by pressing a button results in decreased auditory
subcortical activity when compared to passive listening of those sounds. Aim 2 is to test speechspecific
subcortical auditory modulation by examining subcortical activity during speech formant feedback
perturbation. In this experiment, we will alter how participants hear themselves while they speak. Using
highresolution functional brain imaging, we will be able to see if differences between expected and actual
speech feedback cause more activity in subcortical auditory structures. Aim 3 is to describe the structural
connectivity between auditory structures and the auditory periphery using highsensitivity
diffusionweighted imaging. This brain imaging technique allows us to infer how neuron bundles are
physically connected in the brain and extending out to the ear. Using existing data from a powerful new
imaging device, we will examine neural connections between specific auditory and motor structures in greater
detail than have been investigated before. We will also develop a new method to track the cochlear nerve from
the brainstem to the ear in order to help clinicians determine the best hearing implant for hearingimpaired
individuals. Overall, this project will provide high resolution brain imaging of subcortical auditory structures and
their role in comparing expected to actual selfgenerated sounds. Our results will help us understand how
faulty connections can contribute to speech and mental health disorders and will enable the development of
more effective therapies for such disorders in the future.
