From leprosy to ground zero: Imagining futures in a world of elimination

Abstract Achieving a target of zero—zero disease, zero disability, and zero discrimination—has become the dominant focus of campaigns to control or eliminate diseases, from HIV/AIDS to malaria to leprosy. Given the historical failure of most eradication programs over the last century, such teleological imaginings of disease‐free futures might seem ...

GluN2C/D‐containing NMDA receptors enhance temporal summation and increase sound‐evoked and spontaneous firing in the inferior colliculus

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Here, we find that GluN2D‐containing NMDA receptors (NMDARs) are expressed by most vasoactive intestinal peptide neurons in the inferior colliculus (IC). These receptors are less susceptible to Mg2+ blockade compared to GluN2A/B‐containing NMDARs, allowing ions to flow at resting membrane potential.

Academic achievement of children with unilateral or mild bilateral hearing loss: A systematic review

open access: yesReview of Education, Volume 13, Issue 2, August 2025.
Abstract There has been significant research on the association between hearing loss and academic achievement. However, many studies do not disaggregate by degree of hearing loss. Therefore, the risks to school performance posed by unilateral and mild bilateral hearing loss are not well understood, despite prevalence studies suggesting that 2.4 to 23 ...
