Abstract
Mismatch negativity (MMN), first described by Risto Näätänen in the late 1970s, is now known as a key phenomenon in the brain, reflecting its ability to detect differences in the presented sensory stimuli. Although MMN has been widely studied in both humans and other mammals, the phenomenon has also been increasingly examined in non-mammalian species in recent years. Here, we discuss the role of MMN as an evolutionarily conserved phenotype across taxa, and its general translational significance in neuroscience. Despite challenges of studying MMN in non-mammalian species (especially due to methodological limitations and differences in sensory processing), these model organisms offer important insights into brain sensory and cognitive processing that can have further clinical implications in diagnosing and treating brain disorders. This paper is a scientific tribute to Professor R. Näätänen (1939-2023), a brilliant neuroscientist, colleague, and friend.
期刊介绍：
EJN is the journal of FENS and supports the international neuroscientific community by publishing original high quality research articles and reviews in all fields of neuroscience. In addition, to engage with issues that are of interest to the science community, we also publish Editorials, Meetings Reports and Neuro-Opinions on topics that are of current interest in the fields of neuroscience research and training in science. We have recently established a series of ‘Profiles of Women in Neuroscience’. Our goal is to provide a vehicle for publications that further the understanding of the structure and function of the nervous system in both health and disease and to provide a vehicle to engage the neuroscience community. As the official journal of FENS, profits from the journal are re-invested in the neuroscientific community through the activities of FENS.
