Possible Cure for Tinnitus? Dr. Albert Edge's Thoughts on Stem Cells

I found an article by Dr Albert Edge of Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmity in which he thinks that stem cells taken from the damaged hair follicles of the inner ear might lead to their regeneration and thus to a cure for deafness.

He has already made it work in mice.

We've heard such a lot about the wonders of stem cell therapy that his idea is, for me at any rate, full of promise.

Could it offer hope for a cure on tinnitus?

I should add that I'm deaf in one ear and I have tinnitus in the other.

 

Look for stem cell posts on this forum. You'll find tons of info.

 

Yes, i think ATEOS has written many things about that.

And another question, how would you even get to the stem cells of the hair follicles? Can you link us to that article?
