Overview

Haim Sohmer is affiliated with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel and has contributed to research primarily within the fields of medicine and neuroscience. Their work focuses extensively on otorhinolaryngology and sensory systems, with additional interests in cognitive neuroscience, genetics, and developmental and educational psychology.

The main research topics covered in Sohmer's publications include:

  • Ear Surgery and Otitis Media
  • Hearing, Cochlea, Tinnitus, Genetics
  • Hearing Loss and Rehabilitation
  • Craniofacial Disorders and Treatments
  • Hearing Impairment and Communication
  • Nasal Surgery and Airway Studies
  • Noise Effects and Management

Frequently published venues for Sohmer's work include:

  • Audiology Research
  • Otology & Neurotology
  • Cochlear Implants International
  • Journal of Audiology & Otology

Significant recent papers authored or co-authored by Sohmer illustrate a focus on auditory stimulation and cochlear mechanics. These include:

  • "Occlusion Effect in Response to Stimulation by Soft Tissue Conduction-Implications" (2020, Audiology Research)
  • "The Effect of Soft Tissue Stimulation on Skull Vibrations and Hearing Thresholds in Humans" (2021, Otology & Neurotology)
  • "How Is the Cochlea Activated in Response to Soft Tissue Auditory Stimulation in the Occluded Ear?" (2021, Audiology Research)
  • "Implications from cochlear implant insertion for cochlear mechanics" (2020, Cochlear Implants International)
  • "Audiogram in Response to Stimulation Delivered to Fluid Applied to the External Meatus" (2020, Journal of Audiology & Otology)

Sohmer has collaborated repeatedly with several researchers, including:

  • Miriam Geal-Dor
  • Cahtia Adelman
  • Shai Chordekar
  • Ronen Perez
  • Michal Kaufmann-Yehezkely

This profile reflects Sohmer's contributions to understanding auditory processes, cochlear function, and clinical implications for hearing and ear surgery through a multidisciplinary approach integrating aspects of genetic influence and sensory system analysis.
