how quickly does the brain process sound
Newly recorded speed is almost eight times faster than the 100 milliseconds recorded by previous studies. Part of the brain continues to process images for longer than 13 milliseconds to respond positively after a sequence of rapid-fire pictures. MIT researchers said their study suggests 'vision finds concepts'.
The report shows sensory and brain mechanisms for hearing develop by 30 weeks of the gestational age. The studyâs authors said the unborn child starts listening to the motherâs voice during the last 10 weeks of pregnancy.
