Abstract: ABSTRACT One of the tenets of mammalian auditory physiology is that the frequency selectivity at the cochlear base decreases as a function of stimulus level. Changes in frequency selectivity have been shown to be accompanied… read more here.

Abstract: Severe damage to the organ of Corti leads to degeneration of the spiral ganglion cells (SGCs) which form the auditory nerve. This degeneration starts at the level of synaptic connection of the peripheral processes (PPs)… read more here.

Abstract: The cochlea maps tones with different frequencies to distinct anatomical locations. For instance, a faint 5000-hertz tone produces brisk responses at a place approximately 8 millimeters into the 18-millimeter-long guinea pig cochlea, but little response… read more here.
