Emerging Research Grants: Call for Applications

The Emerging Research Grants program is a competitive process that awards grants to only the most promising investigators. Recipients are exceptionally well-positioned to secure subsequent funding from major federal funders. In fact, ERG awardees (2002–present) have gone on to be awarded an average of $59 in federal research funding for every dollar of their ERG grant.

OAEs are a byproduct of the amplification process mediated by outer hair cells and are often measured in clinical hearing screenings.
