Normal tone-in-noise sensitivity in trained budgerigars despite substantial auditory-nerve injury: no evidence of hidden hearing loss
KS Henry, KS Abrams - Journal of Neuroscience, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
Loss of auditory-nerve (AN) afferent cochlear innervation is a prevalent human condition that
does not affect audiometric thresholds and therefore remains largely undetectable with …

Midbrain-level neural correlates of behavioral tone-in-noise detection: dependence on energy and envelope cues
Hearing in noise is a problem often assumed to depend on encoding of energy level by
channels tuned to target frequencies, but few studies have tested this hypothesis. The …

Midbrain synchrony to envelope structure supports behavioral sensitivity to single-formant vowel-like sounds in noise
Vowels make a strong contribution to speech perception under natural conditions. Vowels
are encoded in the auditory nerve primarily through neural synchrony to temporal fine …
