Cochlear-bioelectrode: Auditory response to cochlear implant can be improved by stem cell delivery into inner ear in a pig model

Abstract Background The cochlear implant (CI) is the most successful neural prosthesis and has improved the quality of life for over one million people with profound hearing loss. The number and function of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in the cochlea are crucial to CI performance. Clinically, pati...
