Their findings, published in Developmental Science, show that a higher proportion of shape-based nouns in a child's vocabulary shortly after cochlear implantation was associated with better language development for the next three years.

The next steps involve further developing materials to allow for the surgical implantation of iontronic pumps.

The decision says almost nothing about the procedure that most laypersons think is the alpha and omega of IVF — the implantation of manually fertilized embryos into the uterus.
