Drs. Shore and Crossland at the Michigan Audiology Coalition conference.
Dr. Shore does groundbreaking Tinnitus research at the University of Michigan. Dr. Crossland and Dr. Dokianakis are excited to learn and bring you the latest tinnitus treatment options.
Dr. Shore shared some of her latest research: “The brain, specifically the region of the brainstem called the dorsal cochlear nucleus, is the root of tinnitus. When the main neurons in this region become hyperactive and synchronize with one another, the phantom signal is transmitted into other centers where perception occurs. If we can stop these signals, we can stop tinnitus.“
