The project studies auditory processing after brain damage (in temporal and/or frontal areas) and in migraine. The auditory processes investigated are attention, short-term memory, sound-induced emotions. To characterize auditory deficits after brain damage or in migraine, neuropsychological assessments are combined with neurophysiological markers (Electro-encephalography: EEG, Magneto-encephalography: MEG, Magnetic Resonance Imaging: MRI).

Inclusion Criteria:

• Age from 18 to 80
• MEG/MRI compatibility
• Motivation to participate efficiently in the study
• No severe hearing loss
• Informed consent to participate in the study
• Affiliation to social security
• For brain-damaged patients : no need for medical assistance; focal temporal and/or frontal lesion; no major cognitive impairment; ability to understand and apply the instructions for neuropsychological testing; testing at least one-month after the event resulting in brain damage; absence of neurological and psychiatric disorders besides the lesion
• For migraine patients: no need for medical assistance; migraine diagnosis; no major cognitive impairment; ability to understand and apply the instructions for neuropsychological testing; absence of neurological and psychiatric disorders besides the migraine
• Healthy participants: absence of neurological and psychiatric disorders

Exclusion Criteria:

• Age below 18 or above 80
• MRI scanning not possible: artificial cardiac pacemaker, insulin pump, metallic prosthesis, intra-cerebral clip, claustrophobia
• MEG acquisition not possible: large heads, neurostimulator, metal in the head or the body.
• Pregnant or breast-feeding women
