Can You Hear Me Now?
 
That morning I'll always keep in mind, Though I wish like a film to rewind it. The morn when I woke up I couldn't hear.I hoped that the silence would disappear. I thought, it'd be better on the next day. It couldn't remain forever this way! I didn't hear what my parents did say When they asked me "Are you feeling okay?" I couldn't not hear even my own voice, Not to mention the outside noise. I panicked, I felt so scared and weird. From a day like this I have always feared. Why was I going through something like this? To hear my own voice how much I missed! I needed to go to my physician, Hoping he could enlighten me about my condition.

Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary
 
 
 
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.
