  • Beschreibung: In case of profound sensorineural hearing loss and deafness, cochlear implants (CIs) partially restore hearing and provide missing auditory information to the brain. Electrical stimulation of the spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) enables speech understanding in the majority of the approximately 500,000 CI users. However, the utility of current clinical CIs is limited by their wide current spread resulting in limited coding of spectral information. As light can be better confined in space, optical CIs (oCIs) promise lower spread of excitation in the cochlea which might enable better speech comp...
