Some form of deafness healed by gene therapy

A young girl who was born deaf and suffered from a gene deficiency, which meant that a certain protein was not produced, which is responsible for the communication of the ear to the brain, has successfully been treated with some gene therapy, which means that she can hear first the first time in her life and hopefully can be considered as cured.
