All acoustic information from the periphery is encoded in the timing and rates of spikes in the
population of spiral ganglion neurons projecting to the central auditory system …

Both place and temporal codes in the peripheral auditory system contain pitch information,
however, their actual use by the brain is unclear. Here pitch data are reported from users of …

In the normal mammalian ear, sound vibrates the eardrum, causing the tiny bones of the
middle ear to vibrate, transferring the vibration to the inner ear fluids. The vibration …

When listening with a cochlear implant through one ear and acoustically through the other,
binaural benefits and spatial hearing abilities are generally poorer than in other bilaterally …

Pitch is the stuff of which music is made. Melody, harmony, and tonality are either built upon
pitch, or else they depend upon similar properties of the physical stimulus. In speech, pitch is …

In this study, we analyze the processing of low-frequency sounds in the cochlear apex
through responses of auditory nerve fibers (ANFs) that innervate the apex. Single tones and …

Research utilizing a mental-chronometry approach to examine individual differences in
extraversion suggests that extraversion-related individual differences may involve stimulus …

Chapter 3 provided a new view of human tactile sensing, revealing how the transmission of
mechanical wave signals in the hand transforms localized touch contact into a variety of …

A combination of signals across modalities can facilitate sensory perception. The
audiovisual facilitative effect strongly depends on the features of the stimulus. Here, we …

In the newest implementation of cochlear implant surgery, electrode arrays of 10 or 20 mm
are inserted into the cochlea with the aim of preserving hearing in the region apical to the tip …
