New Model for the Way Humans Localize Sounds

Not directly tinnitus related but hearing related. I've at least noticed some difficulty with localization after my tinnitus onset so I think this is worth a read.

Summary:
One of the enduring puzzles of hearing loss is the decline in a person's ability to determine where a sound originates, a key survival faculty that allows animals to pinpoint the location of danger, prey and group members. Researchers are proposing a model based on a more dynamic neural code.

I've noticed this as well.
