This project focuses on developing advanced 3D printed micro-prostheses for the middle ear using collagen type 1 and hydroxyapatite. The aim is to enhance the biocompatibility and acoustic performance of these implants to improve hearing in individuals suffering from conductive hearing loss, particularly among the elde…
Conductive hearing loss is a pathology that affects about 15% of the worldwide population and more than 40% of the elderly.
So far, passive implants, made of titanium and hydroxyapatite, are the preferred solution to restore the middle ear function.
Unfortunately, a significant percentage of extrusion still occurs (up to 40% in the long term) due to reduced biocompatibility.
The applicant (i.e. experienced researcher, ER) studied ear micro-prosthetics during his PhD and aims at developing a new…
