“We see in our specialty patients who have ear deformities, called microtia, which can be reconstructed, but it's a technically challenging operation that I think very few people in the world do well, ...

Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and feels natural. The study offers the promise of grafts ...

Anthropometry of the human ear encompasses the systematic measurement and analysis of its dimensions and morphology. This field provides vital normative data for applications in clinical ...

A tiny sensor that mimics how the cochlea in the human ear works could be used for hearing aids or microphones that can pick out sounds in noisy environments. The cochlea can adjust how sensitive it ...

Using state-of-the-art tissue engineering techniques and a 3D printer, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine and Cornell Engineering have assembled a replica of an adult human ear that looks and feels ...
