Aging affects the balance of neural entrainment and top-down neural modulation in the listening brain

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The changes that accompany age-related decreases in speech comprehension are not yet understood. Here, authors show that older adults are less able to entrain to speech-paced auditory rhythms and that the behavioural consequences can be counteracted by ...

Relating age and hearing loss to monaural, bilateral, and binaural temporal sensitivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Older listeners are more likely than younger listeners to have difficulties in making temporal discriminations among auditory stimuli presented to one or both ears.

Auditory-motor adaptation is reduced in adults who stutter but not in children who stutter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Previous studies have shown that adults who stutter produce smaller corrective motor responses to compensate for unexpected auditory perturbations in comparison to adults who do not stutter, suggesting that stuttering may be associated with deficits ...

Viral‐Mediated Connexin 26 Expression Combined with Dexamethasone Rescues Hearing in a Conditional Gjb2 Null Mice Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AAV2.7m8 serotype combined with the gfaABC1D promoter targets infection of supporting cells (SCs). AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 administration to mice results in excessive immune responses. The combination of AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 with dexamethasone (DEX) shows a synergistic effect and enhances the gene therapy effect in a conditional Cx26 null mice model ...

Principal cells of the brainstem’s interaural sound level detector are temporal differentiators rather than integrators

open access: yeseLife, 2018
The brainstem’s lateral superior olive (LSO) is thought to be crucial for localizing high-frequency sounds by coding interaural sound level differences (ILD).

Programmable NIR Responsive Nanocomposite Enables Noninvasive Intratympanic Delivery of Dexamethasone to Reverse Cisplatin Induced Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, saponin‐coated silica@gold nanocarriers responsive to NIR radiation is developed to enhance intratympanic drug delivery for cisplatin‐induced hearing loss (CIHL) treatment. The biocompatibility and oto‐protective properties are validated both in vitro and in vivo.

Efficiency of Spearcon-Enhanced Navigation of One Dimensional Electronic Menus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This study simulated and compared cell phone contact book menu navigation using combinations of both auditory (text-to-speech and spearcons) and visual cues. A total of 127 undergraduates participated in a study that required using one of five conditions

Formation of three-dimensional auditory space [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Human listeners need to permanently interact with their three-dimensional (3-D) environment. To this end, they require efficient perceptual mechanisms to form a sufficiently accurate 3-D auditory space. In this chapter, we discuss the formation of the 3-D auditory space from various perspectives. The aim is to show the link between cognition, acoustics,
