Dunhill Medical Trust: Addressing age-related issues of hearing and/or vision through healthcare technologies

  Friday, 21 Jul 2023 | Funding Deadline

Hearing and vision conditions affect a growing number of older people in the UK, with associated impacts on quality of life and long-term health outcomes. Despite this, there remains a lack of funding into hearing and vision research within the UK, meaning that there’s a real need for research into the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of these conditions, as well as improved care and support for older people living with them. With this call for proposals, Dunhill Medical Trust want to support applications which go beyond uncovering the biological mechanisms of age-related hearing and/or vision conditions, and instead seek to address these issues through the testing and/or scaling-up of healthcare technologies. This could include the development and testing of new technologies, or the scaling-up of piloted technologies.

Deadline for proposals: 21 July 2023
