Translational Research Initiative for Hearing (TRIH) Grant

The Translational Grant is designed to support research initiatives that aim to translate discoveries in hearing loss and tinnitus into new treatments. It targets projects with high commercial potential and that can lead to further funding post-grant, specifically those pushing basic research toward clinical trial readiness. We want to support:

• Research focused on the development of a specific novel therapeutic for the treatment of hearing loss and/or tinnitus.
• Clearly defined experimental plans supported by relevant preliminary and/or proof-of-concept data
• Proposals that clearly outline the commercial potential of the therapeutic and describe how work undertaken during the Translational Research. Grant will enable the innovation to attract follow-on funding for subsequent developmental steps
