Neural and perceptual correlates of closed-loop sensorimotor training: basic and applied studies
The global hearing healthcare field is faced with two principal challenges. First, the demand for basic audiometric testing services far exceeds the capacity of trained clinicians even in high income countries, and this supply/demand mismatch is expected to worsen secondary to population aging. …

The role of texture in auditory scene analysis
Everyday auditory scenes contain sounds from many sources. For example, when crossing the street, you might hear sounds produced from the rumble of passing cars, the chatter of pedestrians, and the rapid tick of crosswalk signals. To make sense of this complex mixture of sounds, the auditory system …

Primary neuronal degeneration in the guinea pig effects on spontaneous rate-type
… of cochlear nerve fibers, even if elevations in cochlear sensitivity are reversible and even if there is no hair cell loss. We hypothesized that this primary neural degeneration does not raise cochlear thresholds because it is selective for cochlear neurons with high thresholds and low …

A metacognitive approach to hearing and listening in older adults
Hearing loss is one of the most prevalent age-related sensory changes, with major consequences for communication and quality of life. Yet, many older adults respond to listening challenges with maladaptive strategies, such as delayed help-seeking or denial, even when aware of their difficulties. …

Scale dependent processing of conspecific signals in the gray treefrog Hyla versicolor
… territorial defense, and many social behaviors in many taxa. Laboratory studies often use ‘simplified’, artificial stimuli which have high signal-to-noise rations and are easy to manipulate, but often do not capture the true range and variation of sounds experienced by organisms in the field. In …
