14 Gating Mechanisms Christen and Corey, Nature Neuroscience Reviews
15 Synchronous Stereocilia Movement (2007/2008) Serial Arrangement Parallel Arrangement - larger excitation 21
16 Coupling of hair bundles Hair bundles are not only locally coupled via the tip links but also with their neighbors via via the mechanical structure and the viscoelastic coupling coherence accross various hair bundles reduces threshold and compensates for noise floor 22

23 Nanomechanic - active processes Large dynamic range Large spectral resolution Low threshold Otoacoustic emissionen diagnostics 30
24 Sensorineural Hearing Loss 31
25 April 2016 Process of Hair Cell Apoptosis due to Acoustic Trauma Three different sites of lesion, depending on etiology of hearing loss, exist: Sensory: Damage to hair cells Neural: damage to auditory neurons and synapsis Homeostasis: damage to energy supply to inner ear Age related hearing loss (most common form): combination of different etiologies, i.e. most complex form of hearing loss Page 32
26 New paradigm of physiological origin of sensorineural hearing loss? Current hypothesis: physiological origin of sensorineural hearing loss is damage to inner and outer hair cells S. Kujawa, C. Liberman et al showed in a series of studies that we might have to re-think the way we think of the physiological origins hearing loss «hidden hearing loss» might exist (J Neuroscience 2009 & 2013, JARO 2011) Kujawa & Liberman, 2009, J Neuroscience Lin, Furman, Kujawa, Liberman 2011 Sergeyenko, Lall, Liberman, Kujawa
27 Hidden Hearing Loss: Persistent Amplitude Declines Although thresholds recover, neural response amplitudes do not why? Kujawa & Liberman, 2009, J Neuroscience 35
28 Hidden Hearing Loss: Preserved Thresholds, Compromised Supra-Threshold Hearing Lin, Furman, Kujawa, Liberman 2011, JARO Single-fiber recordings show selective loss of low- and medium-sr fibers 36

31 Hidden Hearing Loss: from the lab to the clinic Animals humans? Additional component to sensorineural hearing loss seems to exist hidden hearing loss Supra-threshold hearing loss Does not show up in audiogram Various etiologies: noise induced, aging, What are the perceptual consequences of such a hidden hearing loss? Psychoacoustic abilities? (Envelope perception: Stone & Moore 2008) Speech intelligibility / communication effort in complex environments? Which environments? How do we best diagnose and quantify hidden hearing loss? Basic psychoacoustic testing? Grouping rules from Auditory Scene Analysis work? Electrophysiological measures Speech testing? Environment? Attention, effort, memory Rehabilitation, devices? 40
32 Summary Hearing: Nanomechanics Exquiste mechanical properties, rather robust Open questions around details of molecular mechanical archtiecture Active processes Threshold sensitivity, dynamic range, freqeuncy resolution Physical limits Hearing impairement: different sites of lesion Hidden hearing loss 41

34 Fragen Was heisst NANOmechanik im Ohr? Wie gross bzw klein sind die Strukturen die sich im Ohr bewegen? Welche Schädigungen treten im Innenohr bei einer sensori-neuralen Schwerhörigkeit auf und welche Konsequenzen auf die Wahrnehmung hat eine solche Schädigung? Welche neueren Erkenntnisse zur Innenohrschwerhörigkeit erfordern ein Überdenken der klassischen Vorstellung zur Innenohrschwerhörigkeit? Welche Grenzen der klinischen Diagnostik ergeben sich dadurch? Was bedeuten diese Erkenntnisse für die klinische Praxis? Wie oft erlebt ihr es in der klinischen Praxis dass Personen beklagen in schwierigen Situationen schlecht zu verstehen aber ein normales Audiogram haben 43
