Is there any research at Mayo for stem cell therapy, gene therapy or other modalities for treatment of adult neurosensorial hearing loss?

That is a great question. I have read about stem cell therapy being promising but if anyone has more to offer the group I would welcome their input.
The United States did not actively start treating hearing loss until 1988. Hearing aids continue to improve but it would be nice to be able to find something else that would cure it.
Are other parts of the world ahead of us with this technology?
Welcome anyone’s comments.
