Blue hearing aids
 
My son after having a traumatic birth failed a newborn screening test, but the NICU doctors thought it was just because of the loud noises in the room, and told us no worries. He was hospitalized for a night an infection. The pediatric doctors noticed he didn't pass, and tested him again. Failed. He now loves to sport his blue hearing aids!

Yasheng Yuan, Ph.D., Massachusetts Eye & Ear Infirmary, aims to develop a cell-based therapy to replace auditory neurons. We have shown that neural progenitor cells derived from mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells transplanted into the auditory nerve send out fibers that grow to hair cells and to the cochlear nucleus.
