The Kinocilia of Cochlear Hair Cells: Structures, Functions, and Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Primary cilia are evolutionarily conserved and highly specialized organelles that protrude from cell membranes. Mutations in genes encoding ciliary proteins can cause structural and functional ciliary defects and consequently multiple diseases ...

A review of the mechanisms underlying the role of the GIPC3 gene in hereditary deafness

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2023
The GAIP interacting protein c terminus (GIPC) genes encode a small family of proteins characterized by centrally located PDZ domains. GIPC3 encodes a 312 amino acid protein. Variants of human GIPC3 are associated with non-syndromic hearing loss.

The human auditory system and audio

open access: yesApplied Acoustics, 2023
This work reviews the human auditory system, elucidating some of the specialized mechanisms and non-linear pathways along the chain of events between physical sound and its perception. Customary relationships between frequency, time, and phase--such as the uncertainty principle--that hold for linear systems, do not apply straightforwardly to the ...

Serial monitoring of the audiogram in hearing conservation using Gaussian processes

open access: yesFrontiers in Audiology and Otology
Most hearing conservation programs repeatedly monitor a subject's pure tone thresholds before, during, and after exposure to audiopathic agents.

Assessment of balance control mechanisms in patient populations using perturbation-based modeling: a narrative review with clinical implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience
Clinical assessments of balance often rely on indirect measures that offer limited insights into the underlying sensorimotor control mechanisms. Consequently, there is a need for standardized and objective quantification of balance control mechanisms ...

Tonotopic and non-auditory organization of the mouse dorsal inferior colliculus revealed by two-photon imaging

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The dorsal (DCIC) and lateral cortices (LCIC) of the inferior colliculus are major targets of the auditory and non-auditory cortical areas, suggesting a role in complex multimodal information processing.

Biases of Temporal Duration Judgements in Visual and Auditory System

open access: yesPsych, 2022
Background: There is evidence that temporal duration is spatially represented on a horizontal mental timeline (MTL) with relatively short durations represented on the left and long duration on the right side.

Development of the auditory system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Auditory development involves changes in the peripheral and central nervous system along the auditory pathways, and these occur naturally, and in response to stimulation. Human development occurs along a trajectory that can last decades, and is studied using behavioral psychophysics, as well as physiologic measurements with neural imaging. The auditory

A review of the auditory-gut-brain axis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Hearing loss places a substantial burden on medical resources across the world and impacts quality of life for those affected. Further, it can occur peripherally and/or centrally.

Artificial Intelligence and Mental Well‐Being in Adult Education: Implications for Practice and Professional Responsibility

open access: yesNew Directions for Adult and Continuing Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mental well‐being is central to adult learner success, yet many adult education institutions lack capacity to provide timely and accessible support. This article examines how artificial intelligence (AI) can strengthen mental health–adjacent supports in adult and continuing higher education, with attention to professional practice and ...
