They've developed gene therapy that regenerates inner ear hair cells in mice, i.e. mammals (fish, reptiles, etc, can do this by themselves). This is a big step closer to drugs that reverse human sensorineural hearing loss, i.e. deafness from damage and age. Huge. hms.harvard.edu/news/scienti...

Scientists have for the first time managed to restore hearing to people with congenital deafness using gene therapy.
Как слышите? Ученым впервые удалось вернуть слух людям с врожденной глухотой, используя метод генной терапии — Новая газета Европа
Вирусы — не всегда враги: их можно использовать в качестве курьеров, которые доставляют в клетки нужную генетическую информацию. Именно этот способ используют американские и китайские ученые, которые пытаются вернуть людям слух. Метод работает: по результатам одного из первых испытаний пятеро из шести добровольцев с абсолютной глухотой начали различать звуки. Разбираемся, каковы перспективы технологии и в чём ее риски.

@nytimes: Aissam Dam, 11, was the first person to get gene therapy in the U.S. for congenital deafness. The treatment was a success, introducing a child who had known nothing of sound to a new world.
“There’s no sound I don’t like,” he said. https://t.co/nD9efmAo2W https://t.co/zMvNDhClGR
