We reached our funding goal!!!

Thanks to your support, we raised over $10,000 to kick off our project to cure Auditory Dysfunction! We're super excited to get our project up and running. We've been working on the video game development and a perceptual learning experiment. We're making great progress. Thanks to your donations, the project is moving forward due to everyones help. We'll continue to keep you in the loop on developments and results.

Please vote for us on Thinkable.org! We're competing for a $5000 grant.

You can also follow our project on Twitter @auditoryrsrch and on Facebook.

Thanks again,

Alison

About This Project

Hearing loss is one of the top disabilities facing veterans, with over $1 Billion in disability payments per year. Auditory dysfunction (AD) can lead to isolation and depression due to difficulty in understanding speech. Sadly, veterans are left to cope with AD, which has no accepted treatments. To better serve our veterans, we are developing a novel approach to treat AD, by training the auditory cortex to better process complex sounds.

Blast off!
