Student Information Sheet on Noise-Induced Hearing Loss Protecting Your Hearing Health
... Your hearing can be permanently damaged by loud sounds, including music. Technically, this is called Noise-Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL). Such danger is constant. Noise-induced hearing loss is generally preventable. You must avoid overexposure to loud sounds, especially for long periods of time. The c ...

Unilateral deafness by cochlear ablation in animals produces a dramatic increase in the level of neural activity in the inferior colliculus and auditory cortex on the side of the intact ear to acoustic stimulation of that ear. Previous fMRI studies1 appear to confirm this finding in humans who have ...
