Development of auditory and vestibular systems

摘要: Development of Auditory and Vestibular Systems fourth edition presents a global synthetic view the main aspects development stato-acoustic system. Unique to this volume is joint discussion two sensory systems that, although close at embryological stage, present divergences during later reveal conspicuous functional differences adult stage. This work covers auditory receptors up central system from several animal models, including humans. Coverage vestibular system, spanning amphibians effects altered gravity in different species, offers examples diversity complexity life all levels, genes through anatomical form function to, ultimately, behavior. The new will continue be an indispensable resource for beginning scientists area experienced researchers alike. * Full-color figures illustrate pathway* Covers broad range drosophila humans, demonstrating morphological despite similarities molecular processes involved cellular level* Discusses variety approaches, genetic-molecular biology psychophysics, enabling investigation ontogenesis
