Our co-founder, Hazel, speaks about her lifelong struggle with misophonia, a condition that overlaps considerably with tinnitus, with an estimated 60% of tinnitus patients also experiencing misophonia.

Misophonia occurs when sounds made by other humans trigger strong emotions like revulsion.

This is different from hyperacusis, which is when everyday sounds seem too loud or painful.

Yet all of these conditions overlap significantly and might share similar mechanisms. So collaboration across the spectrum of hearing sensitivity disorders is crucial.

Do you experience misophonia?

🤝 Small organizations. Big hearts. Even bigger impact.

We have some truly exciting news to share. Tinnitus Quest has partnered with Hyperacusis Research Ltd., and together we are ready to push hearing health research further than either of us could alone.

Hyperacusis Research will allocate funds for a grant of up to $100,000, which Tinnitus Quest will help administer.

🔬 We are funding breakthrough science on hyperacusis, a condition of extreme sound sensitivity that shares deep biological roots with tinnitus. Millions of people struggle every day with sounds that most of us never think twice about. They deserve answers, and we are committed to helping find them.

🚀 Grant applications are now open. If you are a researcher with fresh ideas and the drive to make a real difference in people's lives, we would love to hear from you.

💙 Two conditions. Two passionate nonprofits. One shared belief: that good science, properly funded, can change lives.

🔥 Silence starts with science. Tinnitus Quest is now accepting applications for our next round of research grants.

Are you a researcher with a bold idea that could move tinnitus science forward? Applications are open until July 15.

Are you a patient who knows a researcher, clinician, or lab that should hear about this? Please share this with them.

Our first grant cycle helped launch a pioneering project. Now, we’re looking for the next wave of ambitious, out-of-the-box ideas that could bring us closer to real treatments, and ultimately, silence.

Let’s make round two even stronger.

We’ll keep you posted. ❤️

Tinnitus Quest was born from the tinnitus community. It was founded by people with tinnitus who were tired of waiting for research to move in the right direction.

The support of this community is at the heart of everything we do.

In Q1, we reached a new milestone: $25,000 in donations through our website.

More than 1,000 people contributed, 1,014 to be exact. The average donation was $25.

That is the power of numbers.

To those 1,014 people, thank you. We do this work for you and with you.

If we stand together, we CAN make a change.

All donations made through our website go directly into our Research Fund. That is how we fund research grants. Our other activities are covered through separate income streams.

Dirk Zandvliet of Gallowstreet speaks openly about the wider impact of tinnitus, not just on individuals, but on creativity, productivity, and how we value health in today’s world.

Gallowstreet are a leading Dutch brass band, known for their high-energy sound and international touring across major festivals and venues.

In this video for Tinnitus Quest, Dirk reflects on a difficult reality: when conditions like tinnitus are not properly addressed, the consequences extend far beyond the individual.

And yet, it remains under-recognised and underfunded.

At Tinnitus Quest, we are working to change that by supporting research and amplifying the voices of those affected.

Meet our new Innovation Board.

Tinnitus affects over 1 billion people worldwide, yet there’s still no cure. We started Tinnitus Quest to change that.

🚀 Last December, we awarded our first research grant to the University of Oxford

🔬 In 2026, we’re accelerating to fund bold, experimental treatments with real potential to silence tinnitus

This isn’t about coping.
It’s about solving.

Join the quiet revolution!
