The neuroanatomical hallmarks of chronic tinnitus in comorbidity with pure-tone hearing loss
Tinnitus is one of the main hearing impairments often associated with pure-tone hearing loss, and typically manifested in the perception of phantom...

Compression and amplification algorithms in hearing aids impair the selectivity of neural responses to speech
In quiet environments, hearing aids improve the perception of low-intensity sounds. However, for high-intensity sounds in background noise, the aids...

Objective hearing threshold identification from auditory brainstem response measurements using supervised and self-supervised approaches
Hearing loss is a major health problem and psychological burden in humans. Mouse models offer a possibility to elucidate genes involved in the...

A homozygous AP3D1 missense variant in patients with sensorineural hearing loss as the leading manifestation
Loss-of-function variants in AP3D1 have been linked to Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome (HPS) 10, a severe multisystem disorder characterized by...

Hearing loss and brain plasticity: the hyperactivity phenomenon
Many aging adults experience some form of hearing problems that may arise from auditory peripheral damage. However, it has been increasingly...

Decreased activity of piriform cortex and orbitofrontal hyperactivation in Usher Syndrome, a human disorder of ciliary dysfunction
Usher syndrome (USH) is a condition characterized by ciliary dysfunction leading to retinal degeneration and hearing/vestibular loss. Putative...

Deficiency of the mitochondrial ribosomal subunit, MRPL50, causes autosomal recessive syndromic premature ovarian insufficiency
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a common cause of infertility in women, characterised by amenorrhea and elevated FSH under the age of...

Effect of Octopamine on the Frequency Tuning of the Auditory System in Culex Pipiens Pipiens Mosquito (Diptera, Culicidae)
We aimed to demonstrate the direct physiological effects of octopamine on the auditory responses of Johnston’s organ sensory neurons in Culex pipiens...

Can visual capture of sound separate auditory streams?
In noisy contexts, sound discrimination improves when the auditory sources are separated in space. This phenomenon, named Spatial Release from...

Protection and Prevention of Age-Related Hearing Loss
Presbycusis is a sensorineural hearing loss caused by hearing system aging and degeneration. The clinical manifestations are progressive bilateral... -
Vestibular contributions to linear motion perception
Vestibular contributions to linear motion (i.e., translation) perception mediated by the otoliths have yet to be fully characterized. To quantify the...

Electrophysiological signatures of temporal context in the bisection task
Despite having relatively accurate timing, subjective time can be influenced by various contexts, such as stimulus spacing and sample frequency....

Vagus Nerve Stimulation and Language Learning
This chapter discusses methodological issues when applying transcutaneous stimulation of the aural branch of the vagus nerve (taVNS) to language... -
Brain Reactions to Opening and Closing the Eyes: Salivary Cortisol and Functional Connectivity
This study empirically assessed the strength and duration of short-term effects induced by brain reactions to closing/opening the eyes on a few...

More Than the Sum of Its Parts: Visual–Tactile Integration in the Behaving Rat
We experience the world by constantly integrating cues from multiple modalities to form unified sensory percepts. Once familiar with multimodal... -
New insights into the anatomo-functional architecture of the right sagittal stratum and its surrounding pathways: an axonal electrostimulation map** study
The sagittal stratum (SS) is a large sheet-like structure where major axonal fiber tracts cross, though its anatomical delineations are still...
