A big thank you to Telethon7 Perth for their generous support to our new CLARIOstar PLUS multi-mode reader, purchased through a successful equipment grant. Thank you to Rochelle Enright, Sales Manager and Application Specialist, from BMG LABTECH for installing and training researchers in our Hearing Therapeutics Team.

👂Did you know middle ear infections (Otitis Media) are a leading cause of hearing loss in children?

🧬The CLARIOstar is enabling researchers to investigate treatments for Otitis Media and rare genetic-associated conditions, such as and . These rare diseases affect both hearing and vision loss in children of Western Australia.

Dr Filippo Valente is heading up a team investigating a child-friendly, targeted drug delivery device that delivers therapies through the eardrum to treat Otitis Media. This innovative treatment enhances the initial cure rate of middle ear infections and would mean no more systemic antibiotics!

Lest We Forget.

Today, on ANZAC Day, we pause to honour the brave men and women who have served, and continue to serve our country. Their courage, sacrifice and unwavering commitment will always be remembered.

Australian Defence Force personnel are routinely exposed to high levels of noise during training and active duty, placing them at greater risk of hearing damage. Research shows that noise-related injury can exist even when a standard hearing test appears normal, a condition known as hidden hearing loss. This can reduce speech clarity and may contribute to tinnitus.

Our clinicians and researchers hear firsthand from veterans who tell us that tinnitus, not just hearing loss, can significantly affect daily life and wellbeing.

Eligible DVA clients can access fully subsidised hearing tests through the Hearing Services Program, as well as support toward hearing devices when required. Book into one of our Clinics today - https://bit.ly/4dLMMDy

To all who have served: We thank you. We honour you. We hear you. And we are here to support you.

We’re thrilled to announce that Channel 7 Telethon Trust has awarded funding to Ear Science Institute Australia for the acquisition of the CLARIOstar PlusÒ multi-mode plate reader — a state-of-the-art instrument that will transform our research into therapeutic drug release for children living with hearing loss.

CLARIOstar PlusÒ will allow researchers to dramatically increase the rate of discovery of therapeutic drugs capable of sustained release in children, and advance drug delivery into inner ear sensory cells.

The project will focus on:
~ Accelerating discovery of sustained-release therapeutic drugs for paediatric hearing loss
~ Advancing drug delivery into inner ear sensory cells
~ Enabling high-throughput analysis and rapid innovation in ear health research.
~ Reducing the severity of diseases in children, supporting improved health and wellbeing.

A heartfelt thank you to Channel 7 Telethon Trust for their generous support and commitment to improving the lives of children with hearing loss.
