Tobias Moser – Gewinner des Leibniz-Preises 2015 – forscht am Gehör, genauer: den Haarzellen der Cochlea. In einem Gespräch mit vielen Hintergrundgeräuschen auf der NWG 2015 ging es unter anderem um unbemerkte Hörschäden und Taubheit durch hohe Temperatur.
Cochlea
The cochlea is the part of the inner ear that contains the organ of Corti, which is responsible for converting acoustic signals into nerve impulses.
Ear
auris
The ear is not only the organ of hearing, but also of balance. A distinction is made between the outer ear with the auricle and external auditory canal, the middle ear with the eardrum and ossicles, and the actual hearing and balance organ, the inner ear with the cochlea and semicircular canals.
