Novel Genome Editing Approach Restores Hearing in Adult Preclinical Models with Genetic Deafness
A team led by Mass Eye and Ear researchers has demonstrated for the first time a successful restoration of hearing through a novel, in vivo genome editing approach in an adult mouse model with a form of inherited deafness caused by mutations in microRNA.
