Neuromorphic Devices and Computing for Sensing, Memory, and Control

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review introduces neuromorphic devices made from diverse materials. These devices mimic neuronal functions and architectures and, when integrated with artificial or biological computing, can form closed loops with neurons for pressure, optical, acoustic, and biochemical sensing and modulation.

Time course of cell death due to acoustic overstimulation in the mouse medial geniculate body and primary auditory cortex

Noise and Health, 2017
It has previously been shown that acoustic overstimulation induces cell death and extensive cell loss in key structures of the central auditory pathway. A correlation between noise-induced apoptosis and cell loss was hypothesized for the cochlear nucleus

Leupeptin reduces impulse noise induced hearing loss

Journal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, 2011
Background Exposure to continuous and impulse noise can induce a hearing loss. Leupeptin is an inhibitor of the calpains, a family of calcium-activated proteases which promote cell death.

Noise-induced hearing loss in rats.

Noise & health, 2000
The effect of noise exposure on the auditory system is well known from animal studies. However, most of the studies concern short-term exposure conditions. The purpose of the present research was to find the dose-effect curve for hearing loss in rats following 5 days of noise exposure. Three groups of eight Wag/Rij rats were exposed to broad band noise
