influence the effectiveness of cochlear implants and the function of the auditory nerve. One area of investigation is the impact of stimulus parameters on the performance of cochlear implants.

Measuring cochlear function A leading theory about the nerves that send signals from the brain to the cochlea (known as “efferent” fibers) is that they control the cochlea’s response to ...
