Clinical trials: Deafness With a Cochlear Implant
Profound Hearing Impairment
Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Brain Reorganisation of the Central Auditory Cortex in Asymetrical Profound Deaf Patient With a Cochlear Implantation.
Our main objective is to study how the extent of reorganization of the central auditory system is related to the binaural integration in cochlear implanted subjects with asymmetric hearing loss.

Deafness
Development of a Deaf Child With a Cochlear Implant.
Cochlear implantation enables profoundly deaf children to acquire speech and develop their understanding of spoken language. However, there are significant interindividual differences in the results obtained with the implant.

Combined Acoustic and Electric Hearing (CI/HA) in Adult Bimodal Users Using a HA With a Bimodal Fitting Formula
Introduction: Bilateral-bimodal users may benefit from bilateral-binaural and a bimodal effect . The two modes of stimulation complement each other and may overcome the limitation of electric hearing alone.
