      Comparing the potential of MEG and EEG to uncover brain tracking of speech temporal envelope 

      Destoky, Florian; Philippe, Morgane; Bertels, Julie; Verhasselt, Marie; Coquelet, Nicolas; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Wens, Vincent; De Tiège, Xavier; Bourguignon, Mathieu (NeuroImage, 2019)
      During connected speech listening, brain activity tracks speech rhythmicity at delta (∼0.5 Hz) and theta (4–8 Hz) frequencies. Here, we compared the potential of magnetoencephalography (MEG) and high-density electroencephalography ...

      Cortical tracking of lexical speech units in a multi-talker background is immature in school-aged children 

      Niesen, Maxime; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Bertels, Julie; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Wens, Vincent; Goldman, Serge; De Tiège, Xavier (ELSEVIER, 2023)
      Children have more difficulty perceiving speech in noise than adults. Whether this difficulty relates to an immature processing of prosodic or linguistic elements of the attended speech is still unclear. To address the ...

      Cortical tracking of speech in noise accounts for reading strategies in children 

      Destoky, Florian; Bertels, Julie; Niesen, Maxime; Wens, Vincent; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Leybaert, Jacqueline; Lallier, Marie; Ince, Robin A. A.; Gross, Joachim; De Tiège, Xavier; Bourguignon, Mathieu (PLOS BIOLOGY, 2020)
      Humans’ propensity to acquire literacy relates to several factors, including the ability to understand speech in noise (SiN). Still, the nature of the relation between reading and SiN perception abilities remains poorly ...

      Cortical Tracking of Speech-in-Noise Develops from Childhood to Adulthood 

      Vander Ghinst, Marc; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Niesen, Maxime; Wens, Vincent; Hassid, Sergio; Choufani, Georges; Jousmäki, Veikko; Hari, Riitta; Goldman, Serge; De Tiège, Xavier (The Journal of Neuroscience,, 2019)
      In multitalker backgrounds, the auditory cortex of adult humans tracks the attended speech stream rather than the global auditory scene. Still, it is unknown whether such preferential tracking also occurs in children whose ...

      Frequency-Dependent Intrinsic Electrophysiological Functional Architecture of the Human Verbal Language Network 

      Coolen, Tim; Wens, Vincent; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Mary, Alison; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Naeije, Gilles; Peigneux, Philippe; Sadeghi, Niloufar; Goldman, Serge; De Tiège, Xavier (Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2020)
      Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allowed the spatial characterization of the resting-state verbal language network (vLN). While other resting-state networks (RSNs) were matched with their electrophysiological ...

      Inaccurate cortical tracking of speech in adults with impaired speech perception in noise 

      Vander Ghinst, Marc; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Wens, Vincent; Naeije, Gilles; Ducène, Cecile; Niesen, Maxime; Hassid, Sergio; Choufani, Georges; Goldman, Serge; De Tiège, Xavier (Brain Communications, 2021)
      Impaired speech perception in noise despite normal peripheral auditory function is a common problem in young adults. Despite a growing body of research, the pathophysiology of this impairment remains unknown. This ...

      Neurodevelopmental oscillatory basis of speech processing in noise 

      Bertels, Julie; Niesen, Maxime; Destoky, Florian; Coolen, Tim; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Wens, Vincent; Rovai, Antonin; Trotta, Nicola; Baart, Martijn; Molinaro, Nicola; De Tiège, Xavier; Bourguignon, Mathieu (ELSEVIER, 2023)
      Humans’ extraordinary ability to understand speech in noise relies on multiple processes that develop with age. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG), we characterize the underlying neuromaturational basis by quantifying how ...

      Synchrony, metastability, dynamic integration, and competition in the spontaneous functional connectivity of the human brain 

      Wens, Vincent; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Mary, Alison; Marty, Brice; Coquelet, Nicolas; Naeije, Gilles; Peigneux, Philippe; Goldman, Serge; De Tiège, Xavier (NeuroImage, 2019)
      The human brain is functionally organized into large-scale neural networks that are dynamically interconnected. Multiple short-lived states of resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) identified transiently synchronized ...

      Temporally stable beta sensorimotor oscillations and corticomuscular coupling underlie force steadiness 

      Mongold, Scott J.; Piitulainen, Harri; Legrand, Thomas; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Naeije, Gilles; Jousmäki, Veikko; Bourguignon, Mathieu (ELSEVIER, 2022)
      As humans, we seamlessly hold objects in our hands, and may even lose consciousness of these objects. This phenomenon raises the unsettled question of the involvement of the cerebral cortex, the core area for voluntary ...

      The role of reading experience in atypical cortical tracking of speech and speech-in-noise in dyslexia 

      Destoky, Florian; Bertels, Julie; Niesen, Maxime; Wens, Vincent; Vander Ghinst, Marc; Rovai, Antonin; Trotta, Nicola; Lallier, Marie; De Tiège, Xavier; Bourguignon, Mathieu (ELSEVIER, 2022)
      Dyslexia is a frequent developmental disorder in which reading acquisition is delayed and that is usually associ- ated with difficulties understanding speech in noise. At the neuronal level, children with dyslexia were ...
