Stowers scientists identify specific genes involved in zebrafish sensory hair cell regrowth, providing new insights that could inform future research into hearing loss treatments KANSAS CITY, MO — ...

A pioneering UK clinical trial injects stem cells during surgery to regrow auditory nerves, offering a biological cure for ...

Researchers have identified a gene that prevents the regeneration of inner ear cells that are critical to hearing, a discovery experts say is the first step toward finding a way to correct the most ...

Hair cells in the inner ear detect mechanical stimuli from sound waves and convert them into electrical signals that the brain can interpret. Some animals, such as zebrafish, can regenerate their ...

Scientists have created a more efficient and controlled way to produce lab-grown inner ear hair cells than current methods allow, offering a new tool for hearing loss research. Research into how this ...
