  • Biohybrid Cochlear Implants in Human Neurosensory Restoration
    Roemer et al. Stem Cell Research & Therapy (2016) 7:148 DOI 10.1186/s13287-016-0408-y RESEARCH Open Access Biohybrid cochlear implants in human neurosensory restoration Ariane Roemer1,4, Ulrike Köhl2, Omid Majdani1,4, Stephan Klöß2, Christine Falk3, Sabine Haumann1,4, Thomas Lenarz1,4, Andrej Kral1,4 and Athanasia Warnecke1,4* Abstract Background: The success of cochlear implantation may be further improved by minimizing implantation trauma. The physical trauma of implantation and subsequent immunological sequelae can affect residual hearing and the viability of the spiral ganglion. An ideal electrode should therefore decrease post-implantation trauma and provide support to the residual spiral ganglion population. Combining a flexible electrode with cells producing and releasing protective factors could present a potential means to achieve this. Mononuclear cells obtained from bone marrow (BM-MNC) consist of mesenchymal and hematopoietic progenitor cells. They possess the innate capacity to induce repair of traumatized tissue and to modulate immunological reactions. Methods: Human bone marrow was obtained from the patients that received treatment with biohybrid electrodes. Autologous mononuclear cells were isolated from bone marrow (BM-MNC) by centrifugation using the Regenlab™ THT-centrifugation tubes. Isolated BM-MNC were characterised using flow cytometry. In addition, the release of cytokines was analysed and their biological effect tested on spiral ganglion neurons isolated from neonatal rats. Fibrin adhesive (Tisseal™) was used for the coating of silicone-based cochlear implant electrode arrays for human use in order to generate biohybrid electrodes. Toxicity of the fibrin adhesive and influence on insertion, as well on the cell coating, was investigated. Furthermore, biohybrid electrodes were implanted in three patients.

    TERM 3 Week 4 12th August 2020 IMPORTANT DATES MINI VINNIE’S SLEEPOUT AUGUST Last Friday, the cold, wet weather did not dampen the spirits of the 42 students and 5 adults who took part in our Minni Vinnies Sleepout, in fact it only added to the Friday 14th experience. We had a wonderful night playing, praying, eating and reflecting on how it Prayer Service for the Feast of must be so hard for those who do not have a warm, comfortable bed to sleep in the Assumption of Mary each night. Monday 17th One of the most powerful experiences was when the students were asked to take a Dance Week piece of cardboard and to find a spot outside in the cold to lay down on their little bit of cardboard for comfort. Many thanks to Miss Hughes, Max Bain (Youth Ministry Officer), Miss Griffiths and Mr Barsby for taking the time out of their weekend to spend with the students of our school. The whole evening was not about raising funds but more so about raising awareness and I am very confident that this was achieved. I am sure that there were September many people who had a bit of a “nanna nap” on Saturday afternoon. We look forward to another Sleepout in 2021.

  • Building the Authentic Celebrity: the “Idol” Phenomenon in the Attention Economy
    Building the Authentic Celebrity: The “Idol” Phenomenon in the Attention Economy. by Charles Fairchild Abstract: The “Idol” phenomenon is a spectacle founded on the creation, perpetuation, and maintenance of specific kinds of carefully structured consumer relationships. Several of the more successful contestants are gradually formed into recognizable and familiar brands centered on varied and mostly familiar pop star personae intended to form the foundations of the relationships between the various contestants and their supporters. However “Idol” relationships are not limited to familiar musician-fan binaries, but grow and evolve into a series of intimate, active relationships that stretch well beyond the life of the show. By the end of each series the primary relationship is no longer confined to contestants and fans, but include a series of relationships between the program and its audience created through a wide range of channels. The main goal of “Idol’s” producers is to build affective investment in contestants and gradually shift that investment to the narrative and drama of the program itself. The Strategic Imperative The advent of the “Idol” phenomenon near the turn of millennium appeared to be overkill. At the time, we did not seem to be running short of pop stars nor were we light on manufactured pop confections. Of course, “Idol” is not a response to any perceived aesthetic crisis on the supply-side, but a reaction to a whole other set of concerns on the demand side. With the vertical integration of global cultural production, a sea change in the technology used to distribute, consume, and experience music, and a music industry now permanently embedded in the larger structures of the entertainment industry, music producers are faced with both grave crises and surprising opportunities.
