The researchers at UCI, under the leadership of Dr. Hamid Djalilian, have found a way to electrically stimulate the inner ear to temporarily stop ringing in the ears, known as Tinnitus. They are currently testing a breakthrough device that, unlike any other in the world, shows promise to treat Tinnitus permanently. This revolutionary device will be a game-changer for those who are suffering from this debilitating disorder.
This Giving Day, we are pleased to announce a matching donation to advance this vital pilot research. As part of a $1 million match, Brian Fargo, CEO of InXile Entertainment, has agreed to match all Giving Day donations one-to-one. Our goal is to use the funds raised today to accelerate this innovative study to bring the device to market.
Thank you for your generosity and for being a hero to Tinnitus sufferers around the world.
