Unraveling the mystery of hearing in gerbil and other rodents with an arch-beam model of the basilar membrane
The mammalian basilar membrane (BM) consists of two collagen-fiber layers responsible for the frequency-to-place tonotopic mapping in the cochlea, which together form a flat beam over at least part of the BM width. The mechanics of hearing in rodents such as gerbil pose a challenge to our understand...
