Mammalian behavior and physiology converge to confirm sharper cochlear tuning in humans [Neuroscience]

Frequency analysis of sound by the cochlea is the most fundamental property of the auditory system. Despite its importance, the resolution of this frequency analysis in humans remains controversial. The controversy persists because the methods used to estimate tuning in humans are indirect and have not all been independently validated... (Source: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences)
