    Neurosoft Bioelectronics: Implantable Electrodes to Treat Tinnitus

    I just read the Tinnitus Hackathon report and thought it was great. When I read the names of attendees at the bottom, I saw Nicolas Gninenko's name, who is the CEO of Neurosoft. Was there any update regarding their clinical trial? Have they hit any roadblocks, or are they still on schedule to...

    Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation (TUS)

    @Nick47, I believe this has one of the best chances of helping us find relief. Tinnitus is heavily influenced by plasticity, so I think repeated treatments might lead to permanent improvement. In this paper, 40 seconds gave them up to 2 hours of change, so why wouldn’t 30 minutes to 1 hour...

    Sound Pharmaceuticals (SPI-5557 & SPI-1005)

    @Alberte, some people feel like this can help tinnitus or, at the very least, keep it from getting worse. The company's CEO also believes it can help with tinnitus. The FDA hasn't approved it, but they gave it the fastest track, so hopefully it will be on the market sooner rather than later.

    Introducing Tinnitus Quest

    I saw the video with Jeff Teräväinen. I thought it was amazing, and it's great to see Tinnitus Quest growing. We as a community have always had a hard time getting celebs to talk about tinnitus, but that seems to be changing. I'm sure Tinnitus Quest will only get bigger and bigger with time.

    I just emailed the company to ask when they plan to start clinical trials and whether they will be open to people outside China. If anyone is interested, their email address is on their website if you want to ask.

    Germany to Invest €500M Over the Next 10 Years for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

    Like the title says, Germany is planning to invest 500 million euros over the next 10 years for CFS. The first thing I want to say is that I am extremely happy for these people. CFS is a terrible condition, and I am glad they are getting the help they need. The second thing I want to say is that...

    I’m not sure about this one, since they spelled tinnitus wrong, but it’s still great to see more and more research and attempts to cure this disease.

    Prof. Thanos Tzounopoulos Receives $2 Million Grant

    I just finished watching the whole video, and it was insightful. Dr. Tzounopoulos said that RL81 not only worked, but it seemed to have a lasting effect for weeks and months, which showed that tinnitus and hyperacusis can be corrected. This was in mice, unfortunately, but it was still great to...

    Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Tinnitus

    I just saw an article saying they’re currently looking for funding to run a trial with 16 patients this time. I think that’s great news and a step in the right direction. @delta784, what would you like to know exactly? I feel like @lusiol summed it up pretty well.

    Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Tinnitus

    Thank you @lusiol. I posted in another thread about an ultrasound helmet that can have the same effect as DBS. I think using something like that to pinpoint where to permanently stimulate in the future will make a big difference. At the moment, it feels like guessing, but at the same time, it...

    Losing Myself Because of Unbearable Tinnitus

    Hello, I’m really sorry for what you’re going through. From what you’ve told us, it seems that your ears have been able to heal, which is amazing and a wonderful thing in itself. I’m truly happy for you about that. As for the head tinnitus, there is always a chance it will improve or that you...
