Overview

Sherri M. Jones is affiliated with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on neuroscience with a strong emphasis on sensory systems and molecular biology. Other areas of study include neurology, ecology, and plant science.

The main topics covered in Jones's work encompass hearing, cochlea, tinnitus, and genetics, with additional focus on vestibular and auditory disorders. The research also extends to marine animal studies, plant molecular biology, RNA and protein synthesis mechanisms, retinal development and disorders, and developmental biology and gene regulation.

Jones has contributed to several recent papers, including:

  • "Retinoic acid degradation shapes zonal development of vestibular organs and sensitivity to transient linear accelerations" (2020, Nature Communications)
  • "Function of bidirectional sensitivity in the otolith organs established by transcription factor Emx2" (2022, Nature Communications)
  • "ANKRD24 organizes TRIOBP to reinforce stereocilia insertion points" (2022, The Journal of Cell Biology)
  • "Repair of surviving hair cells in the damaged mouse utricle" (2022, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences)
  • "Gene Therapy Restores Balance and Auditory Functions in a Mouse Model of Usher Syndrome" (2022, Molecular Therapy)

Their frequent co-authors include Sarath Vijayakumar, Kathleen E. Cullen, Doris K. Wu, Tracy S. Fitzgerald, and Jocelyn F. Krey. Each of these collaborators has worked with Jones on multiple occasions.

Jones has published several studies in notable scientific venues, primarily:

  • Nature Communications (2 publications)
  • The Journal of Cell Biology (1 publication)
  • Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (1 publication)
  • Molecular Therapy (1 publication)
  • Aging Cell (1 publication)

The breadth of their research bridges detailed molecular investigations with complex sensory system functions, notably within vestibular and auditory research. The collaborative nature of their work and consistent publications in high-impact journals highlight an active engagement in advancing understanding in their core fields.
