Human stem cell applications for the treatment of hearing loss (OTOSTEM)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Hearing impairment is the most frequent human sensory deficit and is mainly caused by the irreversible loss of neurosensory cells in the cochlea. The lack of human otic cell models represents a significant roadblock that has hampered the development of drug-based or cell-based therapies for the treatment of hearing loss. In a collaborative effort under this proposal we wish to devise approaches to ...

Metformin for treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome in children (METFIZZ)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2017,

PCOS, a common disorder affecting 5-10% of women of reproductive age is characterized by cystic ovarian morphology, androgen excess, and/or irregular periods and emerges during or shortly after puberty. The common off-label use of metformin for treating PCOS in children appears to have no greater risk than that in adults; drug tolerance is good with limited adverse effects. However, clinical trial ...

Nanotechnology based cochlear implant with gapless interface to auditory neurons (NANOCI)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

Over 60 million of citizens in the EU suffer from hearing loss with its associated restrictions. In severe cases, hearing can only be restored by surgically implanting a neuroprosthesis called cochlear implant, which directly stimulates the auditory nerve.The bottleneck for optimal stimulation is caused by the anatomical gap between the electrode array and the auditory neurons in the inner ear. As ...
