(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Hair cells are the exquisitely-sensitive mechanosensory transducers of the inner ear. While the electrophysiology of hair cells has been extensively studied, little is known about the vital background processes that maintain ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Bilateral cochlear implantation is becoming more common as clinicians attempt to provide better sound-source localization and speech reception in noise for cochlear implant (CI) users. While some improvement over the ...

Sound temporal envelope and time-patterns of activity in the human auditory pathway : an fMRI study (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)The temporal envelope of sound strongly influences the intelligibility of speech, pattern analysis, and the grouping of sequential stimuli. This thesis examined the coding of sound temporal envelope in the time-patterns ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This thesis integrates hardware development, data analysis, and mathematical modeling to facilitate our understanding of brain cognition. Exploration of these brain mechanisms requires both structural and functional knowledge ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Drug-eluting stents have emerged as the most effective method for treating restenosis following percutaneous coronary interventions. This thesis investigates how drugs with similar physiochemical properties but different ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Magnetoencephalography (MEG) non-invasively offers information about neural activity in the brain by measuring its magnetic field. Estimating the cerebral sources of neural activity from MEG is an ill-posed inverse problem ...
-
Statistical shape analysis of neuroanatomical structures based on spherical wavelet transformation (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Evidence suggests that morphological changes of neuroanatomical structures may reflect abnormalities in neurodevelopment, or relate to a variety of disorders, such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Advances ...
