Intended Audience and Purpose

This is the 33^rd Annual International Conference on the MANANGEMENT OF THE TINNITUS AND HYPERACUSIS PATIENT.  Invited presenters are from around the world, and focus on understanding the mechanisms, and understanding the problems of hearing, sleep, concentration, and thoughts/emotions.  Updates on in-person and remote counseling are reviewed from different perspectives.  Companies explain and demonstrate their latest approaches for wearables.   New approaches and research needs are discussed.

The conference is important because it brings together researchers, clinicians and people suffering.   They each learn from the others perspective.  Researchers better understand the needs.  Clinicians are exposed to other novel helping approaches.  People suffering learn about others experiencing similar issues and view the variety of approaches and how different clinicians and researchers with different backgrounds interact in an attempt to move the field forward
