Journal Title：Hearing Research

The aim of the journal is to provide a forum for papers concerned with basic peripheral and central auditory mechanisms. Emphasis is on experimental and clinical studies, but theoretical and methodological papers will also be considered. The journal publishes original research papers, review and mini- review articles, rapid communications, method/protocol and perspective articles.

Papers submitted should deal with auditory anatomy, physiology, psychophysics, imaging, modeling and behavioural studies in animals and humans, as well as hearing aids and cochlear implants. Papers dealing with the vestibular system are also considered for publication. Papers on comparative aspects of hearing and on effects of drugs and environmental contaminants on hearing function will also be considered. Clinical papers will be accepted when they contribute to the understanding of normal and pathological hearing functions.

该期刊的目的是为有关基本外围和中枢听觉机制的论文提供一个论坛。重点是实验和临床研究，但也将考虑理论和方法论论文。该期刊发表原创研究论文、评论和小型评论文章、快速通信、方法/协议和观点文章。

提交的论文应涉及动物和人类的听觉解剖学、生理学、心理物理学、成像、建模和行为研究，以及助听器和人工耳蜗。处理前庭系统的论文也被考虑发表。还将考虑有关听力比较方面以及药物和环境污染物对听力功能影响的论文。当临床论文有助于理解正常和病理性听力功能时，将被接受。
