Contrasting functional imaging parametric maps: The mislocation problem and alternative solutions
Bourguignon, Mathieu; Molinaro, Nicola; Wens, Vincent (NeuroImage, 2018)In the field of neuroimaging, researchers often resort to contrasting parametric maps to identify differences between conditions or populations. Unfortunately, contrast patterns mix effects related to amplitude and ... -
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 ... -

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 ... -
Functional connectivity of sensorimotor network is enhanced in spastic diplegic cerebral palsy: A multimodal study using fMRI and MEG
Vallinoja, Jaakko; Nurmi, Timo; Jaatela, Julia; Wens, Vincent; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Mäenpäa, Helena; Piitulainen, Harri (ELSEVIER, 2024)Objective: To assess the effects to functional connectivity (FC) caused by lesions related to spastic diplegic cerebral palsy (CP) in children and adolescents using multiple imaging modalities. Methods: We used resting ... -

Despite a growing body of research, the pathophysiology of this impairment remains unknown. This ... -
Left Superior Temporal Gyrus Is Coupled to Attended Speech in a Cocktail-Party Auditory Scene
Ghinst, Marc Vander; Bourguignon, Mathieu; Op de Beeck, Marc; Wens, Vincent; Marty, Brice; Hassid, Sergio; Choufani, Georges; Jousmäki, Veikko; Hari, Riitta; Bogaert, Patrick Van; Goldman, Serge; De Tiège, Xavier (The Journal of Neuroscience, 2016)Using a continuous listening task, we evaluated the coupling between the listener’s cortical activity and the temporal envelopes of different sounds in a multitalker auditory scene using magnetoencephalography and ... -
Localization accuracy of a common beamformer for the comparison of two conditions
Lucena Gómez, Gustavo; Peigneux, Philippe; Wens, Vincent; Bourguignon, Mathieu (NeuroImage, 2021)The linearly constrained minimum variance beamformer is frequently used to reconstruct sources underpinning neuromagnetic recordings. When reconstructions must be compared across conditions, it is considered good prac- ... -
