An ear wiggler himself, Schröer has collected stories of remarkable ear abilities, such as people who feel their ears moving toward a sound and people who use their ear movements in daily life. “They ...

The 1.5 million acre Lake Mead National Recreation Area covers “mountains, canyons, valleys and two vast lakes,” the National ...

Jan. 27, 2025 — Various diseases can be treated by stimulating the vagus nerve in the ear with electrical signals. However, this technique does not always work. A study has now shown ...

The human ear has a complex, previously unidentified set of "modes," which Yale physicists have found. These modes place significant limitations on how the ear can detect a remarkable range of ...

Research links human outer ears to cartilage in fish gills. Gene-editing experiments confirm evolutionary connection. Findings date back to marine invertebrates 400 million years ago.

Some people experience fluttering sounds in the ears that come and go, while others may hear a continuous sound. Causes include tinnitus, dysfunction of tissues in the ear, and high blood pressure.

To test whether enhancer activity — and therefore gene regulation — is similar in fish gills and human outer ears, Crump and his colleagues inserted human outer ear enhancers into zebrafish ...

That cartilage was similar to the type found in mammals’ outer ear. The researchers observed that gene activity in the human outer ear cartilage was similar to that in the elastic cartilage in ...

The SE01 humanoid robot, which previously made headlines for achieving one of the most human-like gaits, has again captured global attention. Chinese robotics firm EngineAI has posted a new video ...

To explore this link, scientists used gene enhancers — DNA sequences that control tissue development. Remarkably, when human ear enhancers were introduced into zebrafish, they activated specifically ...
