Our new paper discusses the role of the medial geniculate nucleus (MGB) in tinnitus, while reflecting on animal and human studies. Tinnitus is prevalent in 10-15% in the general population and its underlying mechanism still remains elusive. Here we propose a more general aproach of adaptive sensory gating and temporal processing along the auditory pathway that might add to the thalamo-cortical dysrhythmia profile of tinnitus.
