Drug-Like Molecules Regenerate Hair Cell-Like Cells in Adult Mice

“Think about a brake when driving a car,” Chen explains. “If the brake is always engaged, you can’t drive. We found an siRNA that could remove the brake in this genetic pathway.”

Hearing Health Foundation (HHF) is the largest non-profit funder of hearing research. Since 1958, HHF has given away millions of dollars to hearing and balance research, including work that led to cochlear implant technology and now through the Hearing Restoration Project is working on a cure for hearing loss and tinnitus. HHF also publishes Hearing Health magazine, a free consumer resource on hearing loss and related technology, research, and products.
