The paper identifies a structural niche in the inner ear responsible for otoconia maintenance and links its disruption to vestibular disorders.

This paper introduces a rapid rPMMA workflow for molecular histopathology of calcified temporal bones, reducing processing time and costs by 90% while enabling advanced molecular assays.

This paper uses OCT to image fresh human cochleae non-invasively, identifying structural variations and developing a cochlear integrity rating system for potential clinical diagnostics.

This study challenges the traditional view of Meniere's disease by showing that endolymphatic hydrops is associated with epithelial hyperplasia rather than fluid pressure, suggesting a compensatory cellular response.

The paper identifies rare variants in the TECTA gene associated with familial Meniere disease and suggests their impact on tectorial membrane stability.
