The Hearing Research Group developed a virtual reality experience to take the audience through a journey inside the ear. You will discover the sensory receptors important for hearing and see different scenarios that perturb the auditory organ causing hearing defects. Professor Walter Marcotti’s laboratory is investigating the mechanisms underpinning different types of hearing loss, to aid the development of therapeutic strategies such as gene therapy.
