Duke University neuroscientist Jennifer Groh discusses the vital feature of “neuroplasticity” that accounts for how our brains are continually adapting to the world around us, highlighting how the hearing impaired develop the use of a...

In this video, we discuss rotation equilibrium and the physiology of the semicircular canals.

In this video, we explore the second part of the pathway of audition (hearing). We will trace the movement of a sound wave from the oval window into the cochlea. Then, we examine the workings of the Organ of Corti, the microscopic organ...

In this video, we explore the structure and specific functions of all 3 of the semicircular canals within the inner ear.

In this video, we explore the cochlea and the Organ of Corti by viewing it under light microscopy.<br/>

In this video, we explore the basics of Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) including its presentation and mechanism. Also included is a brief review of inner ear anatomy and the semicircular canals.

In this video, I talk about the organ of corti, which is found on top of the basiliar membrane inside the cochlea. When the basilar membrane vibrates up and down, that causes the organ of Corti to move up and down, and the tectorial...

In this video, I show the details of how the bending of the stereocilia on the inner hair cells results in the release of neurotransmitters, which ultimately results in hearing. Enjoy.

In this video, Leslie Samuel talks about the anatomy and functions of the occipital lobe, which functions as the visual cortex, and the regions of the temporal lobes, which are involved in Auditory processing, perceiving moving objects...

Prebycusis is the scientific name for normal loss of hearing that happens as we age. Learn how and why this happens and test out your own hearing!

Have you ever wondered about what sound is? How do we hear it? Why is it important? Wonder no more. With Alie Astrocyte as your guide, we go through the physics of sound, how our brain hears it, and why it's important for navigating the...

Say whaaaaaat? Yep, it's about time we talk about the auditory system. Your ears are amazing things. Sure, they're a bit floppy, but they help us navigate the word around us just as much as our eyes. In the words of a wise man: To hear...
