Noise-induced cochlear neuronal degeneration and its role in hyperacusis -- and tinnitus-like behavior
… neuronal degeneration results in abnormal auditory behavior, indexed by the acoustic startle response and prepulse inhibition (PPI) of startle. Responses to tones and to broadband noise were measured in mice exposed either to a neuropathic exposure causing primary neuronal degeneration, or …

Task-optimized models of human hearing link perception and neural coding
… computational descriptions of peripheral auditory coding, comparatively less is known about how this neural code supports complex auditory behavior. Humans with normal hearing are remarkably adept at recognizing and localizing sounds in noisy environments with multiple competing sources. …

The effects of noise exposure and genetic background on auditory-evoked behaviors in larval zebrafish
Auditory sensitivity and perception can be influenced by extrinsic factors, such as environmental noise, and intrinsic factors, such as genes and arousal. How do these factors interact and influence auditory-related behaviors? I addressed this question in the larval zebrafish (Danio rerio). …

Scale dependent processing of conspecific signals in the gray treefrog Hyla versicolor
… selection, 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 …
