WELCOME ADDRESS GOVERNING MAYOR OF BERLIN
Berlin extends a warm welcome to the participants of the XI. International Tinnitus Seminar 2014. It is an honour for our city to host this important medical-scientific congress.
For many people tinnitus poses a serious threat to health and quality of life. It is estimated that, in Germany alone, more than eleven million people at least temporarily suffer from the irritating tinnitus noises. And experts predict that the number of those affected will continue to rapidly increase. Which makes it all the more important that considerable effort continue to be made in the research, diagnoses and treatment of this widespread disease.
In Berlin in particular there is the state-of-the-art tinnitus centre of the Charité that, as the largest German specialized facility of its kind, enjoys a great reputation among sufferers as well as in the international research community. Since 2011 the German Tinnitus Foundation Charité has also been committed to research, education and prevention.
As you can see, Berlin offers an excellent professional environment for a successful congress. In addition to the Charité, a leading light of modern medical research and practice, here you find a large spectrum of hospitals supported by various institutions, excellent universities as well as a great number of highly renowned scientific institutions that in many cases conduct cutting-edge research and provide young academics with outstanding opportunities. Above all, there are many innovative enterprises in the areas of biotechnology, medical technology and pharmaceutics. They hallmark Berlin as a modern health-metropolis of international repute.
It is in this spirit that I wish you not only a fruitful professional exchange within the framework of the XI. International Tinnitus Seminar 2014, but also a thoroughly lovely stay in the German capital city, from which you may take lots of new inspirations home with you.
Klaus Wowereit Governing Mayor of Berlin ITS 2014 5
WELCOME ADDRESS PROF. DR. BIRGIT MAZUREK
Dear congress participants, Dear colleagues,
It is my personal pleasure to welcome you here in Berlin for the XI. International Tinnitus Seminar. The three hundred year old Charité University Hospital as well as Berlin are settings well known for special events, extraordinary encounters and also for outstanding research.
As Head of the Tinnitus Center at the Charité University Hospital Berlin and as the Congress President of the ITS 2014, I want to thank all of you who have travelled from more than 50 different countries and five continents for enriching this congress with your professional experience and expertise and also for boosting the exchange of thought.
The I. International Tinnitus Seminar was organized in 1979 by colleagues from the State University of New York. Since then, ten International Tinnitus Seminars have been held all over the world to communicate the latest findings and progress of research and treatment. The ultimate goal was and is till today to better understand tinnitus and to develop successful therapies.
During the four days of XI. International Tinnitus Seminar in Berlin, we will address four main topics: basic research, plasticity, comorbidity and treatment. Presentations of outstanding keynote speakers and a great number of oral presentations and posters should spark discussions and reflect the multi-disciplinary approaches in tinnitus research and treatment.
I am confident that the XI. International Tinnitus Seminar will be a milestone in our journey towards a cure for tinnitus!
Prof. Dr. Birgit Mazurek President of ITS 2014 President of German Tinnitus Foundation Charité Head of Tinnitus Center at the Charité University Hospital 6 ITS 2014
WELCOME ADDRESS DR. KURT ANSCHÜTZ
Dear congress participants,
On behalf of the German Tinnitus Foundation Charité, I warmly welcome you to the XI. International Tinnitus Seminar 2014.
One of the chief concerns of our foundation is to promote international communication in the scientific community. It is our conviction that we can move forward in the highly complex field of tinnitus research and therapy only if you, the experts, share the knowledge and experience you have gained. We therefore thank you for your specific contributions at this international congress.
In your countries the situation may be different, but in Germany too little regard is still paid to the suffering tinnitus causes. The XI. International Tinnitus Seminar will help focus attention on the problem in Germany.
Our Foundation was set up three years ago as a civil society initiative to provide enduring financial support for research. The founders also stipulated that we were to engage in preventive work. A particular target group for our efforts is young people. We invite you to take a look at our website, where we report on all aspects of our work. We are interested in cooperating internationally, and would welcome any proposals.
We all know how important it is that figures in the public eye draw attention not only to the suffering, but also to our efforts in research and therapy. We therefore thank three-time Grammy winner Dianne Reeves and two-time Oscar winner Christoph Waltz for their selfless commitment in supporting this congress. Both are authentic ambassadors for our cause.
I wish you an enjoyable stay in our city and an enriching scientific exchange. The Foundation is celebrating the congress with a charity concert at the French Cathedral (Französiche Friedrichstadtkirche). You are heartily invited to attend.
Dr. Kurt Anschütz Managing Director German Tinnitus Foundation Charité ITS 2014 7
WELCOME ADDRESS PROF. DR. HEIDI OLZE
Dear colleagues,
Welcome to Berlin! It gives me personal pleasure to welcome you here in Berlin, the capital of Germany, for the XI. International Tinnitus Seminar.
Berlin is an open-minded, cosmopolitan city with an interesting history. It is a city of culture, politics, media and science. Visitors from all over the world love the unique flair of it and I sincerely hope that you will enjoy it as well.
The venue of our congress is the historical campus of Europe’s largest, three hundred years- old university hospital – Charité, home of eleven Nobel Price winners in medicine, physiology and chemistry.
The XI. International Tinnitus Seminar will continue the tradition of previous ITS congresses and focus on all aspects regarding tinnitus as an interdisciplinary field: basic research, novel diagnostic, imaging and therapeutic methods of treatment of comorbid diseases.
A particular focus will be put on the emerging issue of cochlear implants and implantable hearing aids as devices that positively influence tinnitus. It is a fascinating field, in which, in recent times, there have been groundbreaking new developments.
We are awaiting an inspiring congress that will not only address the latest developments in all fields of tinnitus, but also create open discussions and interdisciplinary exchanges between all specialists involved in tinnitus.
I wish you a successful congress in a creative and relaxed atmosphere that will encourage an exchange of knowledge in all fields related to tinnitus.
