Neuroscience Assessment of Audio-Tactile Sensory Substitution Training in Participants with Profound Deafness Using the Event-Related Potential Technique Vanessa D. Ruiz-Stovel1, Andrés A. González-Garrido1, Fabiola R. Gómez-Velázquez1, Geisa B. Gallardo-Moreno1, Erwin R. Villuendas-González2, Carlos A. Soto-Nava1 1Instituto de Neurociencias, Universidad de Guadalajara, 2Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás Hidalgo This protocol is designed to explore underlying learning-related electrophysiological changes in subjects with profound deafness after a short training period in audio-tactile sensory substitution by applying the event-related potential technique.
