Distributed and antagonistic contributions of ongoing activity fluctuations to auditory stimulus detection.

19 Oct 2009 Recent studies have shown that ongoing activity fluctuations influence trial-by-trial perception of identical stimuli. Some brain systems seem to bias toward better perceptual performance and others toward worse. We tested whether these observations ... Read more...


A chimera analysis of prestin knock-out mice.

21 Sep 2009 A chimera is a genetic composite containing a unique mix of cells derived from more than one zygote. This mouse model allows one to learn how cells of contrasting genotype functionally interact in vivo. Here, we investigate the effect that different ... Read more...


Evaluation of a novel, noninvasive, objective test of auditory nerve function in cochlear implant candidates.

30 Aug 2009 OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the objective noninvasive recording of the electrically evoked amplitude modulation following response (EAMFR) can be applied for the assessment of auditory nerve function before cochlear implant surgery. STUDY ... Read more...
