Накратко на български

Тинитусът е субективното усещане за шум в ушите, например звънене, което не идва от външен източник. Обучението на нови експерти в тази област е важно, защото състоянието засяга милиони хора в Европа и влияе сериозно на качеството им на живот.

European School for Interdisciplinary Tinnitus Research

What is the problem/issue being addressed? Tinnitus is the subjective perception of sounds in the ear without an objectively existing source of noise. While acute tinnitus sometimes disappears without treatment, chronic tinnitus can stay for a whole life. For many sufferers, the annoying ringing in the ear or ears leads to a significant long-term reduction in their quality of life. Tinnitus is a very heterogeneous condition with respect to a large variety of patient characteristics. The symptoms vary greatly, and for this reason, at present there is no single cure. Also, it has been difficult by now to compare research studies and clinical trials with tinnitus patients. Hence direct comparison and meta-analysis of findings is difficult or impossible. Why is it important for society? According to epidemiological data, chronic tinnitus affects around 42 million people in Europe alone. Meanwhile, the number of patients is rising steadily, and could double by 2050 if current trends continue. Tinnitus is a phenomenon that has not attracted many researchers though it can be a severe medical problem for patients. There is an urgent need to encourage research on tinnitus, and to promote interdisciplinary work developing new concepts. What are the overall objectives? The primary goal of ESIT is to educate and build up a new generation of tinnitus experts that are sensitive to the current challenges in tinnitus research, have a broad knowledge base and have first-hand experience of the possibilities for inter-sectoral complementarity. A total number of 15 Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs) will receive formal education as well as hands-on training on tinnitus research and patient care. The researcher projects of the ESRs cover the following research goals: • Goal 1: Understand meaningful individual differences in tinnitus by integrating knowledge and experience from all relevant clinical and scientific disciplines, and combine it with insights into patient and industry perspectives. • Goal 2: Develop novel personalized treatment solutions that respect each patient profile and integrate it with state-of-the art technological innovations. • Goal 3: Promote comparability of scientific and clinical results across all major relevant disciplines at an international level.

Цел на проекта

The European School for interdisciplinary tinnitus research (ESIT) provides an opportunity for young researchers to work on leading-edge research projects, which will radically improve the situation of 42 million European tinnitus patients. They will develop new treatment solutions for tinnitus, fundamentally improve existing treatment paradigms, implement innovative research methods, perform the first genetic studies on tinnitus and establish the largest pan-European tinnitus dataset, which will allow the implementation of innovative solutions for personalized tinnitus treatment. High quality network-wide training will prepare the individual researchers with outstanding academic as well as personal skills to perform these tasks. The international training programme offered by the ESIT network extends far beyond the doctoral training that can be offered by single universities. A distinctive feature of ESIT is therefore the tight integration of academic, clinical, and industrial partners together with patient organisations and public health authorities. Fellows will be trained by leading specialists from multiple domains and become familiar with the various work environments in the European health sector. The strong intersectoral and interdisciplinary training provides them with all relevant skills and experiences to excel internationally, to recognise their full potential and to take mature career decisions. ESIT will thereby build up a future generation of creative, entrepreneurial and innovative researchers for the European Research Area, trained to master the upcoming challenges in the field, to implement sustained changes in the clinical management of tinnitus, and to shape PhD education programmes for forthcoming students.
