Researchers reveal surprising simplicity behind our ability to hear
26 October 2020
A computational modelling study from the King Group demonstrates that the way sounds are transformed from the ear to the brain’s auditory cortex may be simpler than expected. These findings not only highlight the value of computational modelling for determining the principles underlying neural processing, but could also be useful for improving treatments for patients with hearing loss.
Junk’ DNA could be rewiring our brains
