Cochlear neural degeneration disrupts hearing in background noise by increasing auditory cortex internal noise.

Neuron · 2021

Cochlear neural degeneration drives PV-linked cortical hyperactivity that predicts hearing-in-noise failures.

Fast-spiking GABA circuit dynamics in the auditory cortex predict recovery of sensory processing following peripheral nerve damage.

eLife · 2017

Homeostatic dynamics of PV-mediated cortical inhibition in the first days after auditory-nerve damage predict how well sound processing recovers.

Central Gain Restores Auditory Processing following Near-Complete Cochlear Denervation.

Neuron · 2016

After near-complete cochlear denervation, the cortex ramps up 'central gain' to restore basic sound detection, compensation that can overshoot into hyperactivity.
