Resumen:
Humans can recognize differences in sound intensity of up to 6 orders of magnitude. However, it is not clear how this is achieved and what enables our auditory systems to encode such a gradient. Özçete & Moser (2021) report in this issue that the key to this lies in the synaptic heterogeneity within individual sensory cells in the inner ear.
