Single-unit neurophysiology and human psychophysics have begun to reveal distinct neural mechanisms for processing visual stimuli defined by differences in contrast or texture (second-order motion) rather than by luminance (first-order moti...

The mechanosensitive hair bundles of vertebrate hair cells exhibit a remarkable variety of shapes. For a given location in a sensory epithelium, however, the shape and polarity of a hair bundle are specified precisely. Recent findings, in p...

An important recent advance in the understanding of vertebrate photoreceptor light adaptation has come from the discovery that as many as eight distinct molecular mechanisms may be involved, and the realization that one of the principal mec...

The past two decades have witnessed a revolution in the treatment of sensorineural hearing loss. Cochlear prostheses have evolved from laboratory experiment to a commercial technology that has benefited over 20,000 people. Paralleling this ...

To hear, insects use diverse external structures, which transform acoustic signals to mechanical ones, coupled to astonishingly uniform mechanosensory transducers, the chordotonal organs. New evidence showing that chordotonal organs and ver...

Evidence is accumulating for the existence of mechanisms that create and detect synchrony among action potentials on short time scales both within and between neurons. Progress is most rapid in the retina, the lateral geniculate nucleus, an...

The nature of the neural basis of amblyopia is a matter of some debate. Recent neurophysiological data show correlates of amblyopia in the spatial properties of neurons in primary visual cortex. These neuronal deficits are probably the init...

Bulbospinal serotonergic neurons and two physiological classes of bulbospinal nonserotonergic cells interact to modulate pain transmission. Recent studies have begun to elaborate targets of descending pain modulation other than the well-stu...

A number of laboratories have recently refined descriptions of temporal response properties, from the auditory periphery to the midbrain. At many levels of the auditory pathway, the role of inhibition in temporal coding of complex sounds is...
