Injury or damage to cochlear structures results in a degraded and less faithful encoding of speech and other sounds that characterize the auditory soundscape. Age-related hearing loss is ...

To explore whether the cochlea responds to short-term stimuli, the researchers measured cochlear activity in mice using OCT. At the same time, they tracked the shifting brain states of the mice by ...

Sensory hair cells are tiny structures in the cochlea that wave like blades of grass in the wind – but in this case, it’s the pressure of sound waves that gets them moving. When they do ...

“It’s a very complex structure,” Anne Le Maître ... tiny middle ear bones and the snail-shaped labyrinth called the cochlea, which transmits nerve pulses all the way to your brain.
