Abstract

This study presents a novel computational model of the auditory brainstem, capable of synthesizing auditory brainstem response (ABR) traces by simulating large-scale neuronal activities. Addressing limitations of traditional ABR measurements, the model links ABR waveform features to underlying neuronal properties. Validated using empirical ABRs from animal models of autism and aging, the model accurately reproduced observed ABR alterations, revealing influences of myelin deficits and hyperexcitability in Fragile X syndrome, and degraded inhibitory activity in aging. These findings, supported by experimental data, demonstrate the model's potential for predicting changes in auditory brainstem physiology and guiding further physiological investigations, thus advancing our understanding of auditory neural processes.
