Acoustic Stimulation Improves Memory and Reverses the Contribution of Chronic Sleep Deprivation to Pathology in 3xTgAD Mice [PDF]
Objective: Acoustic stimulation during sleep is believed to enhance slow waves, which are critical to memory consolidation. However, clinical trials of acoustic stimulation have yielded mixed results concerning its effectiveness in improving human memory.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of acoustic stimulation in the treatment of insomnia [PDF]
BackgroundInsomnia is a prevalent and debilitating sleep disorder affecting approximately one-third of the global population, with 10–15% of individuals progressing to chronic insomnia. Acoustic stimulation, a promising non-pharmacological treatment, has

Categorical perception of lexical tones based on acoustic-electric stimulation [PDF]
The effect of low-frequency acoustic input on the categorical perception of lexical tones was investigated with simulated electric-acoustic hearing. A synthesized T1-T2 (flat-rising) tone continuum of Mandarin monosyllables /i/ was used, and they were ...

Temporal sequence of visuo-auditory interaction in multiple areas of the guinea pig visual cortex. [PDF]
Recent studies in humans and monkeys have reported that acoustic stimulation influences visual responses in the primary visual cortex (V1). Such influences can be generated in V1, either by direct auditory projections or by feedback projections from ...

Utility of red‐light ultrafast optogenetic stimulation of the auditory pathway
Optogenetic stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in the ear provides a future alternative to electrical stimulation used in current cochlear implants. Here, we employed fast and very fast variants of the red‐light‐activated channelrhodopsin (ChR)
