Our current research focuses on two sets of experiments related to neural encoding of voice pitch and speech spectra at the level of the auditory brainstem (using the frequency following response) and ...

The auditory brainstem implant is an option for patients with sensorineural hearing loss who are not suitable candidates for cochlear implants, but its placement involves a difficult surgical ...

As a result, she was never expected to speak - but despite the risks, her parents fought for her to be one of the first children in the UK to be given an auditory brainstem implant, requiring ...

The auditory system is the sensory system for hearing. It consists of the outer ear (the auricle and auditory canal), the middle ear (the tympanic membrane, malleus, incus and stapes), the inner ...

The cochlear nerve, also known as the acoustic or auditory nerve, is a sensory nerve responsible for hearing. It travels from ...

We demonstrated that transplanted cells can graft into an animal model of auditory neuropathy, and elicit functional recovery as measured by auditory brainstem thresholds. In an integrative ...

An extensive audiological test battery is used including ultra-high frequency puretone audiometry, speech audiometry, distortion product otoacoustic emissions, auditory brainstem response, and ...
