The Primary Auditory Neurons of the Mammalian Cochlea

The Primary Auditory Neurons of the Mammalian Cochlea edited by Alain Dabdoub, Bernd Fritzsch, Arthur N. Popper, Richard R. Fay.

This volume details the essential role of the spiral ganglion neurons. A comprehensive review about the spiral ganglion neurons is important for researchers not only in the inner ear field but also in development, neuroscience, biophysics as well as neural networks researchers. The chapters are auth...
