Development of the inner ear [PDF]
The vertebrate inner ear is a sensory organ of exquisite design and sensitivity. It responds to sound, gravity and movement, serving both auditory (hearing) and vestibular (balance) functions.

Editorial: Neuroimmunology of the Inner Ear [PDF]
© 2021 Perin, Marino, Varela-Nieto and Szczepek. Although the term was first officially used in 1982 (1), neuroimmunology is now a mature field that has gained immense traction in the past decade. Thanks to novel technological advances, the cellular and molecular mechanisms that mediate the crosstalk between the immune and nervous systems are ...

The inner ear and the neurologist [PDF]
Inner ear disorders are common and patients with vestibular failure often present to a neurology clinic because of their dizziness, gait unsteadiness and oscillopsia. Vestibular disorders can be divided into peripheral and central vestibular disorders.

Of Mice and Chickens: Revisiting the RC Time Constant Problem [PDF]
Avian hair cells depend on electrical resonance for frequency selectivity. The upper bound of the frequency range is limited by the RC time constant of hair cells because the sharpness of tuning requires that the resonance frequency must be lower than the RC roll-off frequency.

Role of the hindbrain in dorsoventral but not anteroposterior axial specification of the inner ear [PDF]
An early and crucial event in vertebrate inner ear development is the acquisition of axial identities that in turn dictate the positions of all subsequent inner ear components.

Molecular and functional characterization of gap junctions in the avian inner ear. [PDF]
To analyze the fundamental role of gap junctions in the vertebrate inner ear, we examined molecular and functional characteristics of gap junctional communication (GJC) in the auditory and vestibular system of the chicken.

Inner ear barriers to nanomedicine-augmented drug delivery and imaging
There are several challenges to inner ear drug delivery and imaging due to the existence of tight biological barriers to the target structure and the dense bone surrounding it. Advances in imaging and nanomedicine may provide knowledge for overcoming the
