"I had to have an MRI, and doctors discovered I had an acoustic neuroma [a tumour in the inner ear canal]. We have to monitor it as I don't want them to operate on it as it's so close to the brain ...

Researchers have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo. By labeling stem cells with a genetic 'barcode', they have been able to follow the ...

or scarring of the ear canal due to recurrent infections are all potential causes of hearing loss. SNHL happens when there’s damage to inner ear structures or in the nerve pathways to the brain.

You might notice fullness, stuffiness, muffled hearing, or pain within your ear. It happens when the ear’s eustachian tube, ...

Changes in inner ear canal morphology over time suggest that mammalian ancestors called mammaliamorphs evolved warm-bloodedness around 233 million years ago during the late Triassic period, according ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo.

By labeling stem cells with a genetic "barcode," they have been able to follow the cells' developmental journey and discover how the inner ear is formed in mice. The discovery, published in ...

The same genes could hold the key to regenerating cells in the ear and eye, according to a new mouse study from the USC Stem Cell laboratory of Ksenia Gnedeva, PhD, published in the Proceedings of the ...
