New NOISE Study Site to Enroll Participants in Southern California

The NOISE Study team is excited to announce the addition of a third NOISE study site in Southern California. The San Diego area, home to multiple Navy and Marine Corps bases, was selected for the new site to improve representation across military branches in the study sample.

This site is made possible by a Department of Defense Joint Warfighter Medical Research Program award. A research audiologist and research coordinator located in the San Diego area have joined the NOISE Study team, and the site also receives support from a regional research administrator and DoD clinician collaborators. Data collection is expected to begin in fall of 2022.
