Cochlear Implant

We are conducting cochlear implant research in many areas, including genetic causes of hearing loss, outcome measures, and music appreciation. We also have devised methods for inserting implants without damaging the cochlear tissue. We are working with colleagues at Columbia Engineering and Harvard University to develop a fully implantable cochlear device.
