The paper constructs a cross-species single-cell transcriptomic atlas of hair cells across multiple vertebrates and identifies conserved and species-specific gene expression programs.

This study maps the spatiotemporal cellular landscape of the human fetal utricle using single-nucleus transcriptomics and spatial transcriptomics, revealing cell states and regulatory pathways involved in vestibular development.

The paper identifies seven macrophage subtypes in the human inner ear across development and adulthood using scRNA-seq data, linking them to specific developmental stages and gene expression profiles.
