Temporal sound processing can be maintained in mouse models of congenital hearing loss with exposure to broadband sounds embedded with pauses, a new study reports.
Researchers have identified the mechanisms behind how noise induced hearing loss occurs and have shown a simple injection to the middle ear may help to preserve hearing following exposure to loud blast noises.
A new study provides further evidence of the place code theory of pitch perception and may help with the development of better cochlear implants.
Researchers report many hearing tests fail to pick up a common form of inner ear damage that leads to hearing loss.
By manipulating two genes, researchers have been able to regenerate immature auditory hair cells.
Researchers use gene therapy to help restore hearing in mice down to the equivalent of being able to hear a whisper.
Researchers link symptoms of difficulty in understanding speech in noisy environments with hidden hearing loss in college aged people.
According to a new study, some inner ear nerve cells can signal tissue damage to the brain.
Findings could eventually lead to new treatment options for restoring hearing in humans.
