CU Anschutz researchers have identified a new mechanism of how auditory sensitivity is regulated, making more sense of how our hearing is so precise -- and providing insight into how we can better ...

These two technologies are integrated into a single meta-structure 3D auditory sensor system, which the research team successfully implemented on an actual robot platform. Field tests were conducted ...

Supported by a $2 million R01 grant from the National Institutes of Health, the Auerbach Lab at the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology will examine how different genes associated ...

The connection between auditory or vestibular disorders and neuroinflammatory or neurodegenerative diseases has gained increased attention due to their impact on individuals’ quality of life. This ...

Scientists have identified the mechanism by which Williams-Beuren Syndrome enhances the ability to discriminate between sounds as interneuron hyperexcitability in the auditory cortex. Williams-Beuren ...

Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a rare disorder that causes neurocognitive and developmental deficits. However, musical and auditory abilities are preserved or even enhanced in WBS patients.

Voice processing is an evolutionary preserved process. Voice-specific responses are already present in utero and voice-specific brain responses develop early in human life - even before birth, the ...

A recent study has confirmed a longstanding theory about the origins of the ‘voices’ experienced by individuals with schizophrenia. This breakthrough validates a hypothesis that has been debated for ...
