I World Tinnitus Congress and the XII International Tinnitus Seminar
1st Word Tinnitus Congress will be organised together with the 12th International Tinnitus Seminar on 22-24 May 2017, in Warsaw, Poland. The Conference will be held in the city center within walking distance of the Old Town and other city landmarks.
The aim of the Congress is to exchange experience, debate over current challenges in the research and therapy of tinnitus, develop recommendations and solutions to the most important problems related to tinnitus. The conference will provide a comprehensive overview of the most significant advances in tinnitus research and treatment. Tinnitus research is of increasing social and clinical interest, as number of suffers grows all over the world. There is a demand for strategies and therapies to prevent and alleviate tinnitus. Our primary aim in organising this congress is to bring together the experienced and up-and-coming scientists and clinicians to actively discuss the latest ideas, results and challenges. We shall consider it our success when the congress will spark new insights that will be applied in research and clinical work.
