Delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 using AAV-PHP.B in the inner ear leads to allele-specific inactivation of the mutated Tmc1 allele and protects auditory function in Beethoven mice

Bernard Schneider, Paola Andrea Solanes Vega, Sofia Carmen Suzanne Spataro

Hearing Loss (HL) is the most prevalent sensorineural disorder, affecting 360 million people worldwide. As genetic causes lead to 50% of pre-lingual deafness, gene therapy is considered as a potential therapeutic strategy. Mutations in the TMC1 gene are li ...

The Changing Paradigm for the Surgical Treatment of Large Vestibular Schwannomas

Constantin Tuleasca

Objective Planned subtotal resection followed by Gamma Knife surgery (GKS) in patients with large vestibular schwannoma (VS) has emerged during the past decade, with the aim of a better functional outcome for facial and cochlear function. Methods We prospe ...

Optical proximity sensing system for atraumatic cochea implant surgery

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Christophe Moser, Ye Pu

The design of a proximity sensor to be integrated into cochlea implants is described. The sensor allows the anticipation of contact between the cochlear implant and intracochlear structures, including the cochlear canal wall and basilar membrane, providing ...

A device and method for increased light transmission through cochlear bone by laser ablation for in situ intracochlear imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Donald Benjaman Conkey, Marilisa Romito

A method for visualizing structures inside a cochlea, comprising the steps of irradiating a cochlear bone with a first laser light to ablate portions of the cochlear bone, to form a thinned area of the cochlear bone, and imaging intracochlear structures by ...

Neuroimaging of human auditory cortex : data analysis and applications

Naghmeh Ghazaleh

Modern neuroimaging technologies provide us with non-invasive methods for study- ing structure and function, and plasticity of the human auditory cortex. Here we have acquired high spatial resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data of the ...

Implant-based three-dimensional superimposition of the growing mandible in a rabbit model

The reliable assessment of craniofacial morphological changes during growth requires invariant regions for image registration. As these regions have not yet been identified in three dimensions, intra-osseous implants are required as fiducial markers for th ...

Characterization of pulse amplitude and pulse rate modulation for a human vestibular implant during acute electrical stimulation

Silvestro Micera, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen, Maurizio Ranieri

Objective. The vestibular system provides essential information about balance and spatial orientation via the brain to other sensory and motor systems. Bilateral vestibular loss significantly reduces quality of life, but vestibular implants (VIs) have demo ...

Conducting polymer electrodes for auditory brainstem implants

Stéphanie Lacour, Nicolas Vachicouras, Amélie Anne Guex

The auditory brainstem implant (ABI) restores hearing in patients with damaged auditory nerves. One of the main ideas to improve the efficacy of ABIs is to increase spatial specificity of stimulation, in order to minimize extra-auditory side-effects and to ...
