In Vivo High-Resolution Imaging for Inner Ear Visualization (R01 Clinical Trial optional)

This grant supports development of in-vivo high-resolution structural and functional imaging technologies for the living human inner ear, including new techniques, probes, or contrast agents that improve detail and accuracy. It funds projects that enhance visualization of structures such as hair cells, otoliths, membranes, ions, and vasculature, using multidisciplinary teams and studies in humans or intermediate animal models.
