Abstract
The first and crucial step in sensory processing, the transduction of stimuli, such as odor, light and sound, into a cellular response, are all regulated by genetic pathways. The past years have provided a significant increase in our understanding of some of these pathways, due in large part to the genes found to be associated with inherited hearing loss (HL).
