Biography

Nicole Rosskothen-Kuhl leads the Neurobiological Research Lab at the University Medical Center Freiburg, Dept. Otorhinolaryngology. Her research focus is plasticity of the central auditory system after cochlear implantation. In one of her current research projects 'CI-Brain-Link' she is analyzing consequences of cochlear implant stimulation in deaf brains by linking molecular, electrophysiological, and behavioral approaches.

Systemically Antagonizing L-Type Calcium Channels Modifies Intensity and Pattern of Fos Expression Evoked by Electrical Intracochlear Stimulation in the Adult Rat Auditory Brainstem

Specific sensory activity such as sustained acoustical or Electrical Intracochlear Stimulation (EIS) elicits electrical responses and molecular changes in neuronal subpopulations of the auditory brainstem. One of the first molecular changes observed is the expression of the immediate early gene Fos. Its protein functions as a monomer of the transcr... Read More»
