The cochlea is key to human hearing, and it plays an important role in our understanding of complex frequency content. The Visual Ear project aims to illustrate the cochlear mechanism as an ...

In the depths of your inner ear lies one of biology’s most intricate sound systems. A new discovery reveals that the cochlea — the spiral-shaped organ that turns sound into electrical signals — is ...

The way in which we experience music and speech differs from what has until now been believed. The results may make it possible to design better cochlear implants. The way in which we experience music ...

The way in which we experience music and speech differs from what has until now been believed. This is the conclusion of a study by researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, and the Oregon Health ...

A tiny sensor that mimics how the cochlea in the human ear works could be used for hearing aids or microphones that can pick out sounds in noisy environments. The cochlea can adjust how sensitive it ...

Scientists from renowned institutions in Germany have successfully created a microelectromechanical sensor inspired by the cochlea, a hollow, spiral-shaped bone found in the inner ear, TechXplore ...

For more than three decades, Lisa Aubert has helped transform both hearing technology and the lives of the people who depend on it. She began her career at Cochlear in 1994 as an audiologist in Europe ...

Shortly before his death in August 2025, A. James Hudspeth and his team in the Laboratory of Sensory Neuroscience at The Rockefeller University achieved a groundbreaking technological advancement: the ...

Five scientists and engineers — Graeme Clark, Erwin Hochmair, Ingeborg Hochmair, Michael Merzenich, and Blake Wilson — have ...
