HEI trains doctors from around the world in surgical techniques that are reversing hearing loss.

A 26 year old Marine returns to his wife and children after four years in the military and two combat tours in Afghanistan. During training, he wore the mandated hearing protection devices–but not in combat where high decibel gunshots, IED blasts, and explosions are both common and unpredictable. Along with severe ringing, his noise-injured ears now have the hearing of an 80 year old. He has difficulty performing his job, hearing his children, and most likely, experiences changes to his emotional and mental state due to erratic and disrupted conversation. Imagine if there was a drug that a soldier could swallow immediately after an explosion that would prevent or heal hearing loss.

We are excited to share the newest research updates and breakthroughs as we look to a bright future in the science of restoring acquired hearing loss.
