Model-based prediction of optogenetic sound encoding in the human cochlea by future optical cochlear implants

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
When hearing fails, electrical cochlear implants (eCIs) partially restore hearing by direct stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs). As light can be better confined in space than electrical current, optical CIs (oCIs) provide more spectral ...

Which Came First, Age-Related Hearing Loss with Tinnitus or Cognitive Impairment? What are the Potential Pathways?

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2023
Research on the causal relationship between age-related hearing loss (ARHL) and/or tinnitus and dementia is an important and fast-moving field. In this opinion paper, the up-to-date evidence and potential mechanisms for the bidirectional relationship are

Conversations in Cochlear Implantation: The Inner Ear Therapy of Today

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
As biomolecular approaches for hearing restoration in profound sensorineural hearing loss evolve, they will be applied in conjunction with or instead of cochlear implants. An understanding of the current state-of-the-art of this technology, including its

Understanding and treating paediatric hearing impairment

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2021
Sensorineural hearing impairment is the most frequent form of hearing impairment affecting 1–2 in 1000 newborns and another 1 in 1000 adolescents. More than 50% of congenital hearing impairment is of genetic origin and some forms of monogenic deafness ...

Inner ear therapeutics and the war on hearing loss: systemic barriers to success

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Despite over 20 years of effort in academic research centers, start-up companies, and established pharmaceutical companies, there are no FDA-approved inner ear therapeutics for treatment of sensorineural hearing loss.

Developing Fast, Red-Light Optogenetic Stimulation of Spiral Ganglion Neurons for Future Optical Cochlear Implants

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021
Optogenetic stimulation of type I spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) promises an alternative to the electrical stimulation by current cochlear implants (CIs) for improved hearing restoration by future optical CIs (oCIs).

Preventing Hearing Loss and Restoring Hearing: A New Outlook [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2015
People with hearing loss represent one of the largest disability groups worldwide, and the prevalence of hearing loss is predicted to rise with an ageing population. Substantial progress has been made towards understanding some of the biological processes involved in the development of hearing impairment as well as therapeutic ways to prevent or ...

Restoration of Hearing. [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1899
Macon, Ga., Jan. 4, 1899. To the Editor: —I send you the following sketch of a case which I believe to be unique: In July of last year there was brought to me for treatment a young white man, and the following history given: Born in Georgia, 18 years of age, he had never had any serious sickness, and gave no history of any of the eruptive fevers, but
