Focus on isolating the speaker's voice and ignoring background noises. Begin with five-minute sessions and progressively ...

Cochlear implants (CIs) are advanced devices designed to provide a sense of sound to individuals with severe hearing loss. They work by bypassing damaged hair cells in the cochlea and directly ...

The illustration shows a cross-section of part of the cochlea, the fluid-filled part of the inner ear that converts vibrations from incoming sounds into nerve signals that travel to the brain via ...

The function of the outer hair cell in hearing is now perceived as that of a cochlear amplifier that refines the sensitivity and frequency selectivity of the mechanical vibrations of the cochlea.

This project aims to characterize the impact of cochlear implantation on cognitive function (sequence processing, executive function), language outcomes, central auditory development and cross-modal ...

Knowing which cell types govern these different functions allows researchers to develop more targeted and effective treatments. “We’ve long believed in the existence of distinct cell types in the ...
