Hidden Hearing Loss: Mixed Effects of Compensatory Plasticity [PDF]

Current Biology, 2020
Hidden hearing loss manifests as speech perception difficulties with normal hearing thresholds. A new study shows that neural compensation induced by this disorder may actually improve speech perception under narrow conditions within an overall profile of degradation.

Master narratives as “colonial propaganda” and counternarratives as “refusal”: How African Australians reimagine racial dignity in Australia

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper utilizes the concept of “colonial master narratives” to examine how racial propaganda is mobilized in the Australian imaginary to “flatten” the stories of Blac/k people and how African Australians deploy counternarratives to reject these racialized projections.

Detection of Left-Sided and Right-Sided Hearing Loss via Fractional Fourier Transform

Entropy, 2016
In order to detect hearing loss more efficiently and accurately, this study proposed a new method based on fractional Fourier transform (FRFT). Three-dimensional volumetric magnetic resonance images were obtained from 15 patients with left-sided hearing ...

Intensified Manufactured Non‐Belonging: Working Holiday Makers in Australia During the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nations manufacture non‐belonging of temporary migrants through policy frameworks that produce exclusion. This precarity maximises the economic benefit of temporary migrant labour by minimising their political, social and legal rights. In this paper, we examine how non‐belonging targeting Working Holiday Makers (WHMs) is manufactured in ...

Clade‐wide morphological and functional variation of the sauropsid columella

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The columella (=stapes) is the middle ear bone of reptiles that transmits vibrations from the environment to the inner ear. It has been shown to exhibit extensive interspecific morphological disparity in several clades; however, its morphological variation and associated functional consequences remain poorly described.

Blast-induced cochlear synaptopathy in chinchillas

Scientific Reports, 2018
When exposed to continuous high-level noise, cochlear neurons are more susceptible to damage than hair cells (HCs): exposures causing temporary threshold shifts (TTS) without permanent HC damage can destroy ribbon synapses, permanently silencing the ...

Genetic Diversity, Adaptation, Wild Introgression, and Coat Color Mutation of Golden Yak

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity, adaptation, wild introgression, and coat color mutation of golden yak from two populations on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau. ABSTRACT The golden yak lives on the Qinghai‐Xizang Plateau with a golden coat and adapts to high altitudes and strong ultraviolet environment. The golden coat is a prominent phenotype in many domesticated species,

Detecting Cochlear Synaptopathy Through Curvature Quantification of the Auditory Brainstem Response

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
The sound-evoked electrical compound potential known as auditory brainstem response (ABR) represents the firing of a heterogenous population of auditory neurons in response to sound stimuli, and is often used for clinical diagnosis based on wave ...
