Using electrocochleography to detect sensory and neural damages in a gerbil model

Abstract Hearing is one of the five sensory organs that allows us to interact with society and our environment. However, one in eight Americans suffers from sensorineural hearing loss that is great enough to adversely impact their daily life. There is an urgent need to identify what part/degree of t...
