European Consortium Inner Ear Genetics – ECIE

Welcome to the European Consortium for Inner Ear (ECIE) website
We are a collaborative network of researchers dedicated to advancing our understanding of hereditary hearing loss across Europe. By sharing data, expertise, and resources, we aim to accelerate the discovery of disease-causing genes, improve genotype–phenotype correlations, map variant prevalence, and lay the foundation for joint research initiatives and funding applications.
