Researchers from Harvard and Beijing universities is experimentally proved that the auditory cortex in deaf and hearing people is almost the same.
In the course of the experiment to study the auditory areas of the cerebral cortex, the researchers used MRI machine.
When was the study, in the study played recordings of sounds of different frequencies: high, low. Scientists saw that and deaf, and completely healthy people to sounds auditory centers of the brain reacted almost the same, that is, the bark is worked similarly.
These studies may help in the future more effective to treat deafness, as well as to examine in more detail the question of sensory perception of information flow.
