That depends on the individual situation of the cochlea after the damage - not everyone has severe to profound hearing loss. We have to wait until...

I hope this is the silence before the storm concerning research news.

If the new head comes with new ears I could get rid of my old one, also a result that I could live with.

Birds learn their species-related melody by DNA and by hearing the melody of their parents/species. I remember I read a study about a baby bird...

I am really happy for every company or research that is around hearing loss and tinnitus. God bless such researchers that focus on such a complex...

Of course you would be happy if it works and try to tell people but to be honest there are enough common methods in the business world to keep...

They are very very rare but I think it would be dubious if an ENT would say "do it, it's not risky at all". I am pretty sure you will have to sign...

Don't know if someone already posted that link (published 2012). Good explanation about severe/profound hearing loss in the cochlea concerning...

I wonder if you still have supporting cells when you have so called "dead regions" in your cochlea after a hearing loss.

I think to identify where hair cells died and to create a drug that can identify it is even more trickier. I think we are too far away from that.

When you believe in the theory of phantom pain and T, wouldnt hidden hearing loss with T need to be severe to profound?

Silence is so freaking loud!

Also if it doesn't work for everyone (like me for example) I am very thankful to live in a time where I can at least hope for cure. If it works it...

Let's make a simple calculation. If insurance companies and/or health care systems cover the costs: 300,000,000 x 25,000 = economic crisis

Do you have an opinion regarding 70+ dB and/or dead regions at higher frequencies concerning this treatment? That would be really interesting to...

In my opinion that's the only way they can go ahead to measure something that is actually measurable. They would not get the huge investments or...
