Role of BMP Signaling for the Formation of Auditory Brainstem Nuclei and Large Auditory Relay Synapses

Ralf Schneggenburger, Christopher Clark, Elin Kristina Kronander

Large excitatory synapses are found at specific points in the neuronal circuits of the auditory brainstem, to enable fast information transfer and the preservation of acoustic timing information. The extracellular cues and signaling mechanisms that lead to ...

Auditory Brainstem Implants: Recent Progress and Future Perspectives

Stéphanie Lacour, Nicolas Vachicouras

The auditory brainstem implant (ABI) was first developed nearly 40 years ago and provides auditory rehabilitation to patients who are deaf and ineligible for cochlear implant surgery due to abnormalities of the cochlea and cochlear nerve. The aims of the f ...

In cochlear implants, the electrode insertion trauma during surgery can cause damage residual hearing. Preserving the residual hearing is an important challenge and the localized administration of drugs, such as steroids, is one of the most promising ways, ...

External stimuli and tasks often elicit negative BOLD responses in various brain regions, and growing experimental evidence supports that these phenomena are functionally meaningful. In this work, the high sensitivity available at 7T was explored to map an ...

The dynamic electric autonomous dial-a-ride problem (e-ADARP) is an extended version of the traditional dial-a-ride problem (DARP). It consists in a ride-sharing service executed by a fleet of electric and autonomous shuttles where the requests appear onli ...

Specific synaptic input strengths determine the computational properties of excitation-inhibition integration in a sound localization circuit

Ralf Schneggenburger, Friedemann Zenke, Enida Gjoni, Brice Antoine Alexandre Bouhours

The lateral superior olive (LSO) is a binaural nucleus in the auditory brainstem in which excitation from the ipsilateral ear is integrated with inhibition from the contralateral ear. It is unknown whether the strength of the unitary inhibitory and excitat ...

Selective electrical and optical neuromodulation of the central nervous system with conformable microfabricated implants

Amélie Anne Guex

Neuroprosthetic systems are designed to interface with the nervous system, for the replacement or restoration of damaged functions in the motor and/or sensory systems. In order to have an efficient communication with the nervous tissue leading to optimized ...

Neuroimaging of human auditory cortex

Naghmeh Ghazaleh

Modern neuroimaging technologies provide us with non-invasive methods for study- ing structure and function, and plasticity of the human auditory cortex. Here we have acquired high spatial resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data of the ...

Optical proximity sensing system for atraumatic cochea implant surgery

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Ye Pu

The design of a proximity sensor to be integrated into cochlea implants is described. The sensor allows the anticipation of contact between the cochlear implant and intracochlear structures, including the cochlear canal wall and basilar membrane, providing ...

Neural Decoding of Discriminative Auditory Object Features Depends on Their Socio-Affective Valence

Melissa Saenz, Wietske Van der Zwaag

Human voices consist of specific patterns of acoustic features that are considerably enhanced during affective vocalizations. These acoustic features are presumably used by listeners to accurately discriminate between acoustically or emotionally similar vo ...
