This is my medical animation demo reel. It first shows a T4 bacteriophage virus injecting DNA into a bacterium. It then depicts stereocilia in the organ of Corti in the inner ear, showing the chemical reaction and eventually the electrical signals that are generated in response to sound.

Research published in Nature describes how spontaneous activity in a developing ear creates the mechanics of hearing in the absence of sound. Researchers say this might help explain the tortuous ringing of tinnitus.

Cochlear implants have been around for years, restoring hearing for many people. But as this ScienCentral video explains, a new version promises to improve the quality of what patients hear.

Helping us tune into the science of sound this week is Bob Carlyon, who explains how we hear, how we can concentrate on one voice in a noisy room, and what it sounds like to have a cochlea implant. From the hard of hearing to the most finely tuned ears on the planet, Ian Russell describes how the greater moustached bat catches prey in complete darkness while flying at 40 miles per hour, Trevor Cox turns the sound of breaking wind into a record breaker as he talks about the biggest ever whoopee cushion, and in Kitchen Science, Derek and Dave investigate the science of balance with the help of a humble office chair and some unsuspecting volunteers...
