What is Neurosoft exactly?

Is this in Phase 2? I just checked their pipeline:

In my opinion, given how widespread, common, and debilitating tinnitus is, if an effective treatment were discovered, investors would be eager to capitalize on the opportunity. They would likely compete intensely to secure a share of the profits.

What would you say is the most promising option in the pipeline at the moment?

The studies conducted by Lenire lack scientific rigor. If I remember correctly, they did not include a control group, among other factors, which significantly undermines its value as a treatment. In contrast, Susan Shore has 20 years of research with a higher-quality study methodology. So, even...

How long would it take to turn this into a viable treatment? The website did say that they are working with a drug company.

I understand the skepticism since, so far, nothing has really done much to help. However, compared to other treatments like this, It is grounded in 'basic science' and actually has a relatively high-quality set of studies to back it up. The radio silence is probably out of respect for the FDA...

Different mechanisms may be at play, but that doesn't mean those mechanisms are entirely separate or don't affect each other. Desensitizing the synapses responsible for tinnitus may also have a knock-on effect on hyperacusis. Everyone I know with some form of hyperacusis also has tinnitus; my...

Dr. Shore's device could help with hyperacusis since the pathways share circuits and neurological processes. Also, when you think about it from a very bare, logical perspective, things that usually share high rates of occurrence can often be treated similarly. Depression and anxiety have...

Would Auricle have submitted the device for FDA approval very soon after the trial was completed? Also, do people think the device can help hyperacusis?
