Researchers have developed a genetic "barcoding" method to trace how stem cells in embryos become neurons and inner ear cells ...

In the early stages of human development, the structures that will become the tiny bones of the middle ear start off in the ...

Karl Koehler builds inner ear and skin organoids from human stem cells to model their development in health and disease.

"You could say that we have created a family tree for the cells of the nervous system and the inner ear." The researchers used a technique where they injected a virus into mouse stem cells at an early ...

"Tracing the origin and development of cells gives us a unique ... "It can help us find new ways to repair or replace damaged cells in the inner ear." Exploring the nervous system The team now ...

We use embryos of a small tropical fish, the zebrafish, in our research, as this fish is a superb model for the study of vertebrate inner ear development. We use genetic and pharmacological approaches ...

This presentation will discuss the process of making inner ear organoids as well as the potential applications of this technique as a powerful tool for investigating human inner ear development and ...

"Tracing the origin and development of cells gives us a unique ... "It can help us find new ways to repair or replace damaged cells in the inner ear." The team now plans to use the method to ...

Discover the main types of deafness, their causes and how half a million Americans navigate communication challenges through ...

researchers report in the September issue of Developmental Cell that the Drosophila Hmx gene partially rescued the development of the mouse inner ear, revealing that the gene could direct the ...

The inner ear is divided into two fluid filled chambers - one inside the other. Figure 3 illustrates the basic organization of both the organs of hearing and balance. The fluid in the two chambers ...
