Effect of Dual Sensory Loss on Auditory Localization: Implications for Intervention [PDF]

Trends in Amplification, 2007
Our sensory systems are remarkable in several respects. They are extremely sensitive, they each perform more than one function, and they interact in a complementary way, thereby providing a high degree of redundancy that is particularly helpful should one or more sensory systems be impaired. In this article, the problem of dual hearing and vision loss

Sox10 contributes to the balance of fate choice in dorsal root ganglion progenitors [PDF]

, 2017
The development of functional peripheral ganglia requires a balance of specification of both neuronal and glial components. In the developing dorsal root ganglia (DRGs), these compo- nents form from partially-restricted bipotent neuroglial precursors ...
