Development of a feline model for preclinical research of a new translabyrinthine auditory nerve implant [PDF]
Cochlear implants are among the most successful neural prosthetic devices to date but exhibit poor frequency selectivity and the inability to consistently activate apical (low frequency) spiral ganglion neurons. These issues can limit hearing performance

Pilot Chronic Evaluation of a Slanted Electrode Array as an Auditory Nerve Implant [PDF]
Objective: The purpose of this paper is to present a chronic, preclinical, pilot study of a multi-electrode auditory nerve implant. To date, the most successful auditory neuroprosthesis is the cochlear implant, but these devices have known limitations ...

Electrocochleography in Auditory Neuropathy Related to Mutations in the OTOF or OPA1 Gene
Auditory Neuropathy (AN) is characterized by disruption of temporal coding of acoustic signals in auditory nerve fibers resulting in alterations of auditory perceptions. Mutations in several genes have been associated to the most forms of AN.

Auditory cortex basal activity modulates cochlear responses in chinchillas. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The auditory efferent system has unique neuroanatomical pathways that connect the cerebral cortex with sensory receptor cells. Pyramidal neurons located in layers V and VI of the primary auditory cortex constitute descending projections to ...

Cochlear Implantation Outcomes in Patients With OTOF Mutations
Auditory neuropathy is a special type of hearing loss caused by dysfunction of the synapse of the inner hair cells, the auditory nerve, and/or the auditory nerve itself.
