Researchers at Rockefeller University have successfully kept a segment of the mammalian cochlea alive outside the body, enabling detailed study of its active sound amplification process. This breakthrough confirms that mammals rely on a universal biophysical principle involving Hopf bifurcation for amplifying faint sounds, paving the way for new treatments for sensorineural hearing loss by understanding and potentially repairing hair cell damage.
