Mammalian cochlea as a physics guided evolution-optimized hearing sensor [PDF]
Nonlinear physics plays an essential role in hearing, from sound signal generation to sound sensing to the processing of complex sound environments. We demonstrate that the evolution of the biological hearing sensors demonstrates a dramatic reduction in ...

Multi-Frequency Intraoperative Monitoring of Hearing Preservation during Cochlear Implantation
(1) Background: Current indications for cochlear implants (CIs) have expanded to include patients with appreciable low-frequency hearing. However, longitudinal results indicate that only one-third of these recipients retain full hearing preservation.

Changes in the response properties of inferior colliculus neurons relating to tinnitus
Tinnitus is often identified in animal models by using the gap prepulse inhibition of acoustic startle (GPIAS). Impaired gap detection following acoustic over-exposure (AOE) is thought to be caused by tinnitus ‘filling in’ the gap, thus reducing its ...

Short, impulse-like sounds such as slamming of a door or rattle of dishes can be uncomfortable for hearing aid users. Therefore, many hearing aids provide impulse (or transient) noise reduction (INR) that should reduce loud and short sounds without ...

Cortical inactivation by cooling in small animals
Reversible inactivation of the cortex by surface cooling is a powerful method for studying the function of a particular area. Implanted cooling cryoloops have been used to study the role of individual cortical areas in auditory processing of awake ...

Application of Big Data to Support Evidence-Based Public Health Policy Decision-Making for Hearing [PDF]
Ideally, public health policies are formulated from scientific data; however, policy-specific data are often unavailable. Big data can generate ecologically-valid, high-quality scientific evidence, and therefore has the potential to change how public ...
