Is there any stem cell hearing loss trial that I can participate in in the UK? I have increasing inner ear hearing loss and can no longer hear music with human voices also becoming more difficult to hear/understand. I have waited unsuccessfully for the past 25 years for such a trial. I seems that I will die now without ever again hearing music which was always for me one of life's greatest joys.
