Participate in Tinnitus Studies (EU Only)

Done!

 

Done.

 

Done.

 

It is absolutely great to have such a community as Tinnitus Talk.

Since we have our TIN-ACT researchers in the UK, Germany, France, Belgium, Denmark, and the Netherlands, volunteers are more than welcome to participate in these projects.

I would also suggest them to visit our website https://tinact.eu/ to read the recent activities of the TIN-ACT projects.

 

Done!

 

You might also try to reach out to Sweden!

 

Done ✅

 

That's great, I have been waiting exactly for someone to do that - collecting a lot of data on tinnitus to map it.

IMO this is what should be done at first, mapping it and understanding how tinnitus works in order to find a real solution. Seeing the big picture.

 

I registered, sadly I doubt this will do anything or anyone will care.

 

Done.

 

Thanks to all the people who kindly filled in the participation form to cooperate with the TIN-ACT researches. I received many registrations just from this forum. It is so amazing...

Most of the enrolled subjects are from the countries where we (in TIN-ACT) have no researchers there, and also, for our researches we need subjects with specific criteria in tinnitus, hearing loss, hyperacusis, etc. So, that is why we decided to edit the registration form, make it more specific, to respect other people's time.

Of course, I am sure that there are many research teams working on tinnitus in different countries and also, new projects in this topic are being started. So, it is always possible to find such scientific groups and join them.

 

Hey Hazel, could it be that the link is not working anymore? I get a 404-error by clicking on it... Would really like to sign up!

 

I am very sorry to hear that. I hope this explanation helps:

There are 15 (human and animal) studies in our TIN-ACT project, and in each of them, there are some inclusion and exclusion criteria for the participants (e.g. hearing loss laterality, hearing loss level, tinnitus condition, and etc.).

Since many of the interested people who registered on the website already have the exclusion criteria, we thought it is more efficient to put the specifications in the registration form. This way only the volunteers with the inclusion criteria register.

 

Where can we find those studies showing the inclusion and exclusion criteria?

How to register? I have registered from the beginning but I don’t know if I am eligible. Didn’t receive any mail yet.

 

Thank you for your consideration.
Since there are several studies with different criteria, we are going to make a systematic form to let the volunteers know if they are eligible for a specific study, or not. Although, this form is not designed yet.
In our next workshop (in 2 weeks), we will design such a form and I will update the website as soon as possible.

For your registration, I should say that I am very sorry that you did not receive any reply. In fact, I received many registrations with different tinnitus conditions. It was not possible to reply them one by one since I had to write a specific answer for each of them. So, I decided to explain the situation here and I know that almost all of them are a member of this forum. I hope everyone reads this post.

 

Hi Shahin, thank you so much for the quick reply! I might be wrong, but wouldn't that still mean I'm able to register to TIN-ACT? As of now, I just can't seem to find a web page where I can sign up!

And in reply to Hazel: I'm situated in the Netherlands, so could it be a web development issue?

I'd love to hear from you.

 

Hi,

Well, you're right. You will be able to register to TIN-ACT, but not now. After we change the registration form and update the link, I will let you know (here) that the link is ready.

I really appreciate your motivation.
