Dear list: Some years back I put forward a novel model of the cochlea in which wave energy reverberated between the 3 rows of outer hair cells. This resonance model of hearing generated some discussion on this list. The model became the basis of my PhD study (just completed), and a number of papers are now emerging. A central one is a paper recently published in a new journal, Bioinspiration and Biomimetics. This paper, "Sensors, motors, and tuning in the cochlea: interacting cells could form a surface acoustic wave resonator", is currently available for free download (until the end of this month) from http://stacks.iop.org/1748-3190/1/96.
