Living with hearing loss
 
I was born with high frequency nerve damage. I was 5 yrs old when my parents realized that I couldnt hear from behind. I have coped with the loss by reading lips thanks to my speech therapist during grade school. As the years progress I have found that I can not afford the hearing aids. If there is help out there for me to be able to afford hearing aids it would be a blessing for me. i have been without them for over 20 yrs now and i would love to have them to be able to hear better.

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.
