Advances in Genetic Diagnosis and Treatment of Hearing Loss — A Thirst for Revolution [PDF]
Despite the significant advances in understanding the molecular basis of hearing loss, precise identification of genetic cause still presents some difficulties, owing to phenotypical variation. Gene discovery efforts for hearing disorders are complicated

Mitochondrial Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A Retrospective Study and a Description of Cochlear Implantation in a MELAS Patient [PDF]
Hearing impairment is common in patients with mitochondrial disorders, affecting over half of all cases at some time in the course of the disease. In some patients, deafness is only part of a multisystem disorder. By contrast, there are also a number of “

When Hearing Defers to Touch [PDF]
Hearing is often believed to be more sensitive than touch. This assertion is based on a comparison of sensitivities to weak stimuli. The respective stimuli, however, are not easily comparable since hearing is gauged using acoustic pressure and touch using skin displacement.

Clarity: Machine Learning Challenges to Revolutionise Hearing Device Processing [PDF]
In the Clarity project, we will run a series of machine learning challenges to revolutionise speech processing for hearing devices. Over five years, there will be three paired challenges. Each pair will consist of a competition focussed on hearing-device processing ("enhancement") and another focussed on speech perception modelling ("prediction").
