Acoustic neuroma is a non-cancerous tumor that develops on the nerve that connects the ear to the brain. The tumor usually grows slowly. As it grows, it presses against the hearing and balance nerves. This information from MedlinePlus offers additional resource links for those seeking to learn more about acoustic neuroma.

Engineers develop one-way transmission system for sound waves
labspaces.net — “While many hotel rooms, recording studios, and even some homes are built with materials to help absorb or reflect sound, mechanisms to truly control the direction of sound waves are still in their infancy. However, researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have now created the first tunable acoustic diode-a device that allows acoustic information to travel o” View full resource at labspaces.net
