If you can wiggle your ears, you can use muscles that helped our distant ancestors listen closely. These auricular muscles helped change the shape of the pinna, or the shell of the ear, funneling ...

To learn more about these small ear muscles, Hackley and colleagues recruited 20 participants with normal hearing and attached electrodes to their scalp to track electrical activity in their ...

A mechanism that activates specific muscles in our ears is a leftover from our evolutionary past, back when our ancestors depended more on their hearing for survival.

Do your ears hang low, do they wiggle to and fro? In the latter case, that’s thanks to a so-called “neural fossil”.

The vestibular system is a network of organs in the inner ears that detects the motions and position of the head. The brain uses this information, along with inputs from the eyes and joints, to ...

Across the street from a small creek that runs below the Westchester Bluffs in Playa Vista, Wallis Annenberg PetSpace is ...

To test the functioning of the muscles, researchers recruited 20 people without hearing problems. They used electromyograph, ...

The Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security released on January 13, 2025, an interim final rule to implement an export ...
