Cochlear Mechanisms: Structure, Function, and Models

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA))

Abstract

Noise-induced hearing losses have been widely studied over the past decades. But the different animal species and experimental conditions used rarely allowed interspecific correlations or extrapolation of the results to the human species.
