Is there any way we can reach out to the researchers to find out what their next step is going to be? Are they still in the animal testing phase, and how long might it be before they can begin clinical trials? Maybe Tinnitus Quest could help fund their research further.

Hello @Annina, I’m sorry you are going through all of this. The fact that it has only been two months is actually a good sign. It means there is still a chance for things to improve or for you to get used to it. The best advice I can give is to protect yourself from any sounds that hurt or...

In the Meniere’s Reddit forum, they said that Ebselen has been extended to an open-label phase, which will further test how effective it is. It might take more time than originally expected.

William R., you are a legend. Thank you.

This was a great paper on the role of neuroinflammation in tinnitus. The authors highlighted current medications that can address this, as well as future goals for clinical trials. I hope they continue with this research.
