Researchers identify a brain pathway in humans that enables rapid, unconscious fear responses to scary sounds, similar to ...

Auditory Processing Disorders (APDs) in children represent a complex set of difficulties in the perceptual processing of sound despite normal peripheral hearing. These disorders are broadly ...

Scientists at the Baylor College of Medicine, the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children’s Hospital, and the Oregon Health & Science University have identified and mapped ...

Researchers have developed a non-invasive method for mapping the human auditory pathway, which could potentially be used as a tool to help clinicians decide the best surgical strategy for patients ...

Increasing the expression of a protein responsible for maintaining neuron health led to better-than-normal processing of auditory information, according to a new study. The findings open the door to ...

Scientists have discovered a brain pathway that explains why scary sounds can trigger fear before you even understand what ...

Recent headlines in the United Kingdom earlier this year attributed noise-canceling headphones as a possible culprit in rising rates of auditory processing disorder (APD) and hearing problems in ...
