  • Title: Auditory neuroscience: development, transduction, and integration.
    Author: Hudspeth AJ, Konishi M.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 2000 Oct 24; 97(22):11690-1. PubMed ID: 11050196.
    Abstract:
    Hearing underlies our ability to locate sound sources in the environment, our appreciation of music, and our ability to communicate. Participants in the National Academy of Sciences colloquium on Auditory Neuroscience: Development, Transduction, and Integration presented research results bearing on four key issues in auditory research. How does the complex inner ear develop? How does the cochlea transduce sounds into electrical signals? How does the brain's ability to compute the location of a sound source develop? How does the forebrain analyze complex sounds, particularly species-specific communications? This article provides an introduction to the papers stemming from the meeting.
