O implante coclear (IC) permitem ouvir pela estimulação elétrica direta do nervo auditivo. No entanto, a má frequência e intensidade resolução limita a qualidade de ouvir com CIs. Aqui descrevemos estimulação optogenética do nervo auditivo em ratos como uma estratégia alternativa para a investigação auditiva e desenvolvimento de futuros ICs.
