Finite element modeling has emerged as an essential tool in understanding the complex biomechanics of the middle ear. By discretising the intricate anatomical structures—such as the tympanic membrane ...

An artificial-intelligence model was shown to be significantly more accurate than doctors at diagnosing pediatric ear infections in the first head-to-head evaluation of its kind. The tool, called ...

Professor Pavel Jungwirth and his colleagues from the Institute of Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry of the Czech Academy of Sciences and the cochlear implant company MED-EL, based in Austria, have ...

A new model built on stochastic thermodynamics shows that the tiny hair bundles inside the inner ear do not simply detect sound waves but actively switch between distinct operating modes, one tuned ...

An artificial-intelligence (AI) model built at Mass Eye and Ear was shown to be significantly more accurate than doctors at diagnosing pediatric ear infections in the first head-to-head evaluation of ...
