The project investigates the cochlea of toothed whales to understand their echolocation abilities. By analyzing cochlear morphology and its relationship to diet and behavior, it aims to provide insights into the evolution of these marine mammals.
Toothed whales (Odontoceti) are a spectacular example of evolutionary adaptation, highly specialised apex predators and a key component of modern ocean ecosystems.
The key innovation that has facilitated their evolutionary success is echolocation.
Research into odontocete hearing has so far been biased towards physiological experiments and auditory pathway identification; quantitative studies on the cochlea are lacking, despite its critical role in audition. I will fill this gap in knowledge of…
