Hyperacusis Research is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a mission to advance biomedical research into the underlying mechanisms of hyperacusis, with the goal of developing effective treatments and ultimately finding a cure. We raise money to fund scientific research grants through our partners Hearing Health Foundation and Tinnitus Quest. We have funded 15 grants to date, and with your help will fund even more in 2027. As of late 2026, we have three active research projects under way, which is the most we have ever had at one time. This high pace of research activity is thanks to the generosity of our donors.
