Silicon Modeling of Pitch Perception [PDF]
We have designed and tested an integrated circuit that models human pitch perception. The chip receives as input a time-varying voltage corresponding to sound pressure at the ear and produces as output a map of perceived pitch.

Can We Change? Applying Vosniadou's Theory to Assessment Reform in Dental Education
ABSTRACT Background Assessment reform in medical education is challenging, often encountering resistance from institutional norms and deeply held educator beliefs. These beliefs influence the success of reform initiatives. Sustained reform requires understanding educators’ conceptual models—how they form, persist, and transform over time—so that ...

3D‐Printed Sinus Lift Training Models as an Educational Tool for Dental Students
ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate whether 3D‐printed models can be an inexpensive and suitable way to train dental students to perform a sinus lift. Methods The sinus lift model was created using CAD/CAM technology. Approximately one year prior to their final examination, thirty‐one dental students evaluated and tested ...
