Around the World Hearing Day, we organized different scientific and outreach activities for general public, both directed to change midsets and empower people with hearing impairment. On WHD 2025, we organize 2 activities:
– A scientific seminar in the Institute of Biomedical Research Sols-Morreale CSIC (Madrid, Spain) entitled “Molecular Predictors of Recurrence in Vestibular Schwannoma: A Transcriptomic and RT-qPCR Analysis”, where Dr. Carmen Ruiz, one of our associated clinicians, explain the genetic and molecular basis of vestibular schwannoma, a rare tumor of the vestibular nerve that causes hearing loss.
– An intervention in “En las onda de Marie”, a UCC+i – UCM radio space that address scientific content applied to everyday life and explained by experts, where our colleague Dr. Julio Contreras talks about hearing and hearing loss. The podcast is available through the Spotify and Ivoox platforms.
