Centre of Excellence

The Centre of Excellence for Hearing Research is a joint overall, sustainable scientific umbrella structure that operates the Hearing4all project across the three supporting universities, the Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg, the Hannover Medical School and the Leibniz University Hannover.
The aim is to support and coordinate joint research between the universities, which builds on the complementary expertise in basic, applied and clinical research on hearing aids and hearing implants at the internationally recognised and well-networked cluster locations of Oldenburg and Hannover. The Centre of Excellence for Hearing Research contributes to ensuring the long-term sustainability of the cluster’s hearing research and to achieving stronger links between the existing, intra-university and diversified research groups and the university structures geared to hearing research.
