In this installment of Hearing Health Hour, Hearing Restoration Project scientific director Lisa Goodrich, Ph.D., and consortium member and past Emerging Research Grants scientist Ronna Hertzano, M.D., Ph.D., discuss the biology of inner ear hair cell regeneration, the HRP’s current work, and the direction of future research. The presentation provides a broad overview of the techniques and tools central to the effort—including those developed by HRP scientists—and some of the challenges facing researchers in this endeavor. This webinar originally aired on July 12, 2021.
