Stem Cell experiments moving from lab on to animals

Dr Rivolta and team in University of Sheffield is the 1st in the world to be able to create human ear hair cells. They did it in the lab.

Seem they are moving from lab to animal testing. This means they might have invented an instrument which can transplant the hair cells from the lab into the inner ear. This is nothing but good news.
