The Carver's did as so many have done over recent decades. They turned to the talented doctors and researchers of the Cochlear Implant Program at University of Iowa Health Care in Iowa City.

The hypothesis was tested by delivering the neurotoxin, kainic acid, to the intact round window of young gerbil cochleae while monitoring auditory responses in the cochlear nucleus ... A hole made in ...

The researchers have now come a step closer to mapping this island by discovering the shortest-lived superheavy nucleus known so far, which marks the position of the island's shoreline in nuclei ...

A new milestone in nuclear physics has been achieved with the direct observation of three different deformations in the atomic nucleus of lead-190 (190 Pb). These deformations, associated with ...

When we hear sounds, specialized cells in the cochlear nucleus are the first to process that information, enabling our brains to understand speech, enjoy music and recognize various noises.

Kreeger et al. convincingly demonstrate that octopus cells in the mouse cochlear nucleus, previously thought to rely primarily on excitatory inputs for coincidence detection, also receive glycinergic ...

Hearing loss can affect these areas of development. When hearing aids don’t help enough, a surgically implanted hearing device called a cochlear implant may help children with severe hearing loss ...
