BBSRC

We are grateful for the BBSRC for helping to fund the exciting hearing research taking place at the University of Sheffield.

Some of the recent hearing research lab publications they have supported include:

2022

• AAV-mediated rescue of Eps8 expression in vivo restores hair-cell function in a mouse model of recessive deafness.

• Neuroplastin genetically interacts with Cadherin 23 and the encoded isoform Np55 is sufficient for cochlear hair cell function and hearing

2021

• Biophysical and morphological changes in inner hair cells and their efferent innervation in the ageing mouse cochlea

2020

• Loss of Baiap2l2 destabilizes the transducing stereocilia of cochlear hair cells and leads to deafness
