Yale physicists have discovered a sophisticated, previously unknown set of "modes" within the human ear that put important constraints on how the ear amplifies faint sounds, tolerates noisy blasts, ...

Yale researchers discovered new cochlear hearing modes that influence how the ear amplifies sound and processes frequencies.

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 ...

When these hairs become damaged, you may experience high frequency hearing loss. You have about 16,000 hair cells in your cochlea when you’re born. Hearing damage might not be detectable until ...
