The paper describes strain patterns in the organ of Corti of gerbils using optical coherence tomography, showing how motion varies across regions and frequencies.

The paper investigates suppression in the gerbil cochlea using optical coherence tomography, finding frequency-specific suppression patterns and suggesting nonlinear mechanisms involving motion amplitude and vibration axis changes.

The paper identifies a 'hotspot' and 'frame' in the cochlea's organ of Corti complex, showing that the hotspot moves nonlinearly with sound and the frame is shielded from sub-BF activity.

The paper investigates the role of tectorial membrane mechanics in the cochlear amplifier's phase shift and power generation, showing that radial impedance minima align with experimental data.

This study investigates the recovery of cochlear vibrations after reducing the endocochlear potential, finding that amplification requires both active electromotility and physical shifts in operating conditions.
