A rich history of comparative research in the auditory field has afforded a synthetic view of
sound information processing by ears and brains. Some organisms have proven to be …

The binaural interaction component (BIC) of the auditory brainstem response (ABR) is the
difference obtained after subtracting the sum of right and left ear ABRs from binaurally …

Sound localization involves information analysis in the lateral superior olive (LSO), a
conspicuous nucleus in the mammalian auditory brainstem. LSO neurons weigh interaural …

The lateral superior olive (LSO), a prominent integration center in the auditory brainstem,
contains a remarkably heterogeneous population of neurons. Ascending neurons …

The interaural level difference (ILD) is a robust indicator of sound source azimuth, and
human ILD sensitivity persists under conditions that degrade normally-dominant interaural …

Objective assessment of spatial and binaural hearing deficits remains a major clinical
challenge. The binaural interaction component (BIC) of the auditory brainstem response …

Sound localization relies on minute differences in the timing and intensity of sound arriving
at both ears. Neurons of the lateral superior olive (LSO) in the brainstem process these …

The binaural interaction component (BIC) is a sound-evoked electrophysiological signature
of binaural processing in the auditory brainstem that has received attention as a potential …

Noise-induced cochlear synaptopathy has been studied for over 20 years with no known
diagnosis for this disorder within the human population. This type of “hidden hearing loss” …

Binaural cues are important for spatial hearing. Through interaural time and level differences
(ITD and ILD) between the two ears it is possible to locate sound sources. Binaural hearing …
