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

Altered white matter structure in auditory tracts following early monocular enucleation [PDF]
Purpose: Similar to early blindness, monocular enucleation (the removal of one eye) early in life results in crossmodal behavioral and morphological adaptations.

The connections of the inferior colliculus and the organization of the brainstem auditory system in the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum) [PDF]
The connections of the inferior colliculus, the mammalian midbrain auditory center, were determined in the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum), using the horseradish peroxidase method.

The Impact of Age and Duration of Cochlear Implant in a Congenital Deaf Population: An ERP Study [PDF]
Objective: It is well known that patients with Cochlear Implant (CI) have a large inter-individual variability in linguistic and auditory performances. This can be related to individual auditory processing abilities and integrity of auditory system from ...

Impaired Auditory Temporal Selectivity in the Inferior Colliculus of Aged Mongolian Gerbils [PDF]
Aged humans show severe difficulties in temporal auditory processing tasks (e.g., speech recognition in noise, low-frequency sound localization, gap detection). A degradation of auditory function with age is also evident in experimental animals.

Modulation-frequency acts as a primary cue for auditory stream segregation [PDF]
In our surrounding acoustic world sounds are produced by different sources and interfere with each other before arriving to the ears. A key function of the auditory system is to provide consistent and robust descriptions of the coherent sound groupings ...

Biases of Temporal Duration Judgements in Visual and Auditory System
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.

Serial monitoring of the audiogram in hearing conservation using Gaussian processes
Most hearing conservation programs repeatedly monitor a subject's pure tone thresholds before, during, and after exposure to audiopathic agents.

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.
