Comparison of Interaural Electrode Pairing Methods for Bilateral Cochlear Implants
In patients with bilateral cochlear implants (CIs), pairing matched interaural electrodes and stimulating them with the same frequency band is expected to facilitate binaural functions such as binaural fusion, localization, and spatial release from ...

Neuronal specializations for the processing of interaural difference cues in the chick
Sound information is encoded as a series of spikes of the auditory nerve fibers (ANFs), and then transmitted to the brainstem auditory nuclei. Features such as timing and level are extracted from ANFs activity and further processed as the interaural time

Structural Changes and Lack of HCN1 Channels in the Binaural Auditory Brainstem of the Naked Mole-Rat (Heterocephalus glaber). [PDF]
Naked mole-rats (Heterocephalus glaber) live in large eu-social, underground colonies in narrow burrows and are exposed to a large repertoire of communication signals but negligible binaural sound localization cues, such as interaural time and intensity ...

The Mammalian Interaural Time Difference Detection Circuit Is Differentially Controlled by GABAB Receptors during Development [PDF]
Throughout development GABAB receptors (GABABRs) are widely expressed in the mammalian brain. In mature auditory brainstem neurons, GABABRs are involved in the short-term regulation of the strength and dynamics of excitatory and inhibitory inputs, thus ...

Dopaminergic Innervation of the Nidopallium Caudolaterale in the Japanese Quail
The nidopallium caudolaterale (NCL) of the Japanese quail was delineated based on quantitative TH+ fiber density, identifying it as the primary dopaminergic target within the pallium. TH+ basket‐like structures predominantly surrounded CaMKIIa+ excitatory neurons, with sparse contacts onto GABAergic interneurons.

Spatial cue reliability drives frequency tuning in the barn Owl's midbrain
The robust representation of the environment from unreliable sensory cues is vital for the efficient function of the brain. However, how the neural processing captures the most reliable cues is unknown. The interaural time difference (ITD) is the primary

Speech recognition in noise with active and passive hearing protectors: a comparative study [PDF]
The perceived negative influence of standard hearing protectors on communication is a common argument for not wearing them. Thus, augmented protectors have been developed to improve speech intelligibility.

ABSTRACT Anxiety disorders are highly prevalent and often associated with incomplete response, poor tolerability, or refusal of pharmacological treatments. Nonpharmacological interventions targeting stress‐regulatory systems are therefore increasingly explored. We describe herein the clinical effects of immersive natural sound stimulation delivered via
