The auditory ossicles are suspended in the middle ear by ligaments. The malleus is shaped like a hammer. It sits in the middle ear between the incus and the eardrum. The parts of the malleus include ...

Previous work has often considered thalamus function only as a relay for sensory input, rather than as a direct participant in generating conscious perception. Yet anatomical studies have shown ...

The researchers found that specific higher-order regions of the thalamus function as a gateway to awareness by transmitting signals to the prefrontal cortex. These findings offer important insights ...

It’s less about flash and more about function, drawing folks who want to sweat hard and see progress fast. Open hours stretch long, and the vibe stays gritty, mirroring Newark’s own tough spirit.

Adolescence is a developmental period characterized by heightened plasticity, yet how ongoing development affects sensory processing and cognitive function is unclear. We investigated how adolescent ...

Work on fear conditioning has shown that there are direct, subcortical projections to the amygdala from the auditory thalamus (that ... that the substrate of brain function is not so much to ...

It has been found that mutations in some SLC members are associated with hearing loss. In this review, we summarize SLC family genes related with hearing dysfunction to reveal the vital roles of these ...

In the rodent cochlea, THRs are expressed in the sensory epithelium and other tissues from mid-gestation into the postnatal period and function as transcription factors playing important roles in ...
