The pale spear‐nosed bat: A neuromolecular and transgenic model for vocal learning
Vocal learning, the ability to produce modified vocalizations via learning from acoustic
signals, is a key trait in the evolution of speech. While extensively studied in songbirds …

Bats experience age-related hearing loss (presbycusis)
YC Tarnovsky, S Taiber, Y Nissan… - Life Science …, 2023 - life-science-alliance.org
Hearing loss is a hallmark of aging, typically initially affecting the higher frequencies. In
echolocating bats, the ability to discern high frequencies is essential. However, nothing is …

Network resonance and the auditory steady state response
The auditory steady state response (ASSR) arises when periodic sounds evoke stable
responses in auditory networks that reflect the acoustic characteristics of the stimuli, such as …
