In this photo taken Feb. 11, 2015, Angelica Lopez, 3, smiles during a therapy session at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Angelica was born deaf and received an auditory brainstem implant to allow her to hear some sounds in a research study at USC. U.S. researchers are implanting a device on the brain stems of a small number of deaf children to see if it will help them learn to hear. The studies are aimed at children who don’t have working hearing nerves and thus don’t qualify for a more common technology, cochlear implants. The implants stimulate brain cells that those nerves normally target. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)
