Cancerous vocal fold lesions could exert a subtle influence over the sound of a person's voice, which could help catch ...

Susan Thiebault, who has expertise in vocal fold physiology and biology at University of Wisconsin, Madison, also will contribute to the project. The model will include built-in airflow to stimulate ...

Another change that affects people’s vocal folds is aging. “Voice boxes begin to age in our late 40s. You can hear the changes as we get older,” Sivasankar said. “You have to use exercises to ...

Vocal folds In a human’s larynx or voice box, as it is commonly known, there are two highly complex, multilayered structures called vocal folds. When you breathe, the folds open to let oxygen flow ...

However, additional motions of the vocal folds, such as collisions with each other, can generate additional frequencies that are multiples of that fundamental frequency: "harmonics" at 200 Hz, 300 ...

Oregon Health & Science University said a trained AI program can detect cancer of a larynx by picking up the distinct ...

These muscles are called vocal cords, or vocal folds, and their vibrations form the foundations of the human voice. They also speak to the emergence and evolution of human language.

Now a new study in the prestigious journal Science reports that toothed whales evolved an air-driven nasal sound source that operates at different vocal registers like the human voice.
