Spatial hearing, and more specifically the ability to localize sounds in space, is one of the
most studied and best understood aspects of hearing. Because there is no coding of …

This work reviews the human auditory system, elucidating some of the specialized
mechanisms and non-linear pathways along the chain of events between physical sound …

Fragile X encompasses a range of genetic conditions, all of which result as a function of
changes within the FMR1 gene and abnormal production and/or expression of the FMR1 …

The binaural interaction component (BIC) of the auditory brainstem response is a
noninvasive electroencephalographic signature of neural processing of binaural sounds …

Bushy cells of the ventral cochlear nucleus are time-coding neurons. They receive
axosomatic synaptic terminals from the auditory nerve, the so-called endbulb of Held …

Although rats and mice are among the preferred animal models for investigating many
characteristics of auditory function, they are rarely used to study an essential aspect of …

Spatial hearing remains one of the major challenges for bilateral cochlear implant (biCI)
users, and early deaf patients in particular are often completely insensitive to interaural time …

A rich history of comparative research in the auditory field has afforded a synthetic view of
sound information processing by ears and brains. Some organisms have proven to be …

The structure of the mammalian auditory brainstem is evolutionarily highly plastic, and
distinct nuclei arrange in a species‐dependent manner. Such anatomical variability is …

In the brain, microglia are involved in immune responses and synaptic maturation. During
early development, these cells invade the brain, proliferate, and morphologically mature to …
