Researchers working on solution for deafness A University of Toronto resear cher Is woridng to improve the design of surgical implants used by profoundly deaf people who cant benefit from traditional hearing aids Dr David Smith of the of department of otolaryngology is analyzing the neutral process that determine the quality of hearing aided by the implants in cluding loudness range frequen cy and intensity His research is part of a million study involv ing four other universities In the last 20 years some pro foundly deaf individuals could ex perience a degree of language comprehension with the help of cochlear implants surgically grafted devices that transmit sound by using a patterned elec trical current to bypass the cochlea the organ that converts sound into neutral activity and hair cells to directly stimulate the auditory nerve However speech through a cochlear implant does not sound normal partly due to the design of the device and because scien tists dont know exactly how the implants work At the of T we will examine how the brain perceives auditory sensations created by the plants said Smith Other researchers participating in the project will study electrode design and the physiological behavior of electrical current fields in the inner ear A cochlear implant system con of a miniature microphone a speech processor and an im planted electrode array which is surgically threaded into the cochlea near the auditory nerve The array is connected to the speech processor either through the skin or by a miniature radio transmitter The microphone picks up in coming sound and relays it to the speech processor HALTON HILLS HOTLINE 8772201 ALUMINUM INSTALLATION Chartered Accountants Main St South Georgetown Ontario OH IK Tor41lM625tl Replacement Windows Doors Patio Doers Soffit Fascia Eavestrough Roofing 2S rears MEL TAYLOR LTD MARDON ALUMINUM Siding Soffit Trough Windows Doors CALL DON WINDSHIELD REPAIRS WE HANDLE ALL INSURANCE CLAIMS AUTO UPHOLSTEHV SUNROOFS VINYL TOPS NO EIIR FOR MOBILE 8731655 UNIT GEORGETOWN CONTRACTING KL CARPENTRY CALL KEVON 8531 104 Eves STRIDES GENERAL CONTRACTING Interiors Exterior Additions Renovations a no Hot Tub Whirlpool SALE ft INSTALLATION OF STEEL BUILDINGS steel Res Hlllsburflh BUS CONSTRUCTION liLY CUffTOMH0liK0ESIQNBUHOt RENOVATIONS 1S1MKMSZ4 NEW CUSTOM J HOME 1 Our Design J I I And Up I J Addition Cottagaa Commarclal Ik ELECTRICAL LTD mi SERVICE PROP HALTON EXCAVATING CO Excavating Grading Good Clean Sand Fill For Sale em ie Excavating Ekpta TrtrHtHEMAJHTENANCE ft MOVEMENT COMPANY Kitchen Updates Basements Small Appliances Repaired Pick up Delivery 16 Years Experience Excellent References CALL JURGEN 8736903 LAWNS GARDEN SMALL ENGINE REPAIRS Snowblowers Mowers Garden Tractors Pick Up A Delivery GEORGETOWN RENTALL Sinclair Ave PAINTING DECORATING NO GST Guaranteed Paintings Decorating paint your home or office Rooms from CALL TtJDAV FOR FREE ESTMATE 8737622 GEORGETOWN RentAll Too4sEquipment 55 Sinclair awe Rentals Sales Service JIIUIIillUlildiHHIlUa ALUMINUM PRODUCTS ATLANTIC ALUMINUM INC Aluminum Vinyl Siding Eove J trough Shutters Thermal Windows Doors SVr Trs On Mileiul Quick Years Experience or HOMI Laminating Kitchens Interior Trimming Bom Rooms Tsp -FMEESTilMTES- BILL BARCLAY ENTERPRISES CUSTOM CARPENTRY Residential Commercial Experience 7r7i68 TAS CONTRACTING RacRoome 8532202 CONSTRUCTION CONSTRUCTION niiwiiiimiil Home TON SYE VANDERMEER CONSTRUCTION and Datamini Belli room and Window and Door Cuilom HomaaJAgrl Cultural Siding SVE41731127 CHDEKIN CONSTRUCTION LTD Over 35 Yeats Experience In Peel Harlan Residential Industrial Construction Ik fcvLtw Room Call Collect lor FREE ESTIMATE at ARM SOLID OAK CONSTRUCTION INC Horn A Cooimaf Building Ranonlloni Ceramic Tint SkylfghU Roofing Phil McLaughlin 8774902 l lUliUUP INSULATED so I DOORS 1 1 II il Style nn Available QQ NOVAK ED STEWARTS EQUIPMENT SALES SERVICE PARTS mant ra V Hwy A Erin 8339616 WINDOW REPAIRS HANDYMAN SPECIALIZING Masonry Renovating Decks Fencing Hoofing Tiling Insulating Miscellaneous Work Call RON at 8532931 8534329 After p PAINTING VMC VERNS MASONRY CONSTRUCTION Stone Bnck Tile in Fireplaces Stonework Ceramic and Cloy Tile Repairs 8533826 Eyeglasses Contact Lenses Fast Service Eye Examinations Arranged Guelph St S Guelphvlew Sq Georgetown MOORE PAINTING CONTRACTORS INC Georgetown Ontario BILL MOORE JJ ELECTRONICS Repairs to All Models of TVs and Converters I VCR Mien Rtpjan For FREE Estimates On CarryIn 7V 360 Street Unit SALES A SERVICE TV VCflSTEREO REPAIRS DAYS WE SERVICE EVERYTHING WE SELL Ea BRAMPTON COLOUR SOUND UPHOLSTERY UPHOLSTERED FURNITURE Recovered Repaired T H BRIGGS 8779312
