ABSTRACT This application seeks partial support for the 2023, 2025, and 2027 Conferences on Implantable Auditory Prostheses (CIAP). The 2023 CIAP is scheduled to be held at the Granlibakken Conference Center, Lake Tahoe, CA, July 9-14, 2023. The cochlear implant (CI) is the first neural prosthesis in widespread clinical application for restoring sound sensation and speech understanding to the severely hard-of-hearing population who have difficulties understanding speech with acoustic hearing aids. Over the past 30 years, dramatic improvements in patients' performance with these devices have been achieved and hence a wider population of patients can benefit from cochlear implants. Currently the average speech understanding score for implanted postlingually deafened adults is nearly 80% correct for sentence recognition in quiet and 50% correct in low levels of background noise. Congenitally deaf children who receive a CI prior to age 2 are achieving nearly normal rates of speech and language development. CIs can even provide significant improvement in communication for adults who have substantial residual acoustic hearing. These advances have benefitted considerably from the collective efforts of researchers in a broad array of scientific disciplines, from cellular biology, physiology, materials science, and signal processing, to linguistics and cognition. This interdisciplinary collaboration and cooperation has been fostered in large part through a series of biennial conferences, originating with a 1983 Gordon Conference. These conferences are the only forum related to CIs in which scientific research issues are the sole focus of active participants in the auditory community who contribute to moving the field forward. Even the best CI users though face significant limitations in music perception as well as speech perception in challenging listening environments. The long-term goal of CIAP is to generate cutting-edge research ideas to improve the design and function of auditory prostheses. The Specific Aims are to provide (1) a global forum for the presentation and discussion of the latest and highest quality research, (2) an atmosphere that is conducive to: disseminating new findings through scientific discussion, stimulating new lines of research, and facilitating collaborations through social networking, and (3) an opportunity for young investigators and many trainees in the field to present their work and network with established investigators. CIAP conferences use the Gordon Research Conference model of organization, with ample time for discussion within the program, unstructured time to encourage spontaneous informal discussions and brainstorming, and an isolated “retreat” location where participants spend most of their waking hours with other conference participants.

摘要 本申请寻求对2023年、2025年和2027年可植入听觉会议的部分支持 假体(CIAP)。2023年CIAP计划在太浩湖格兰利巴肯会议中心举行， 加州，2023年7月9日至14日。人工耳蜗术是第一个在临床上广泛应用的神经假体 恢复重度重听人群的声音感觉和言语理解 使用声学助听器理解语音有困难。在过去的30年里，在 患者使用这些设备的表现已经达到，因此更广泛的患者群体可以 从人工耳蜗术中获益。目前，植入语言后的平均语音理解得分 聋人在安静的情况下识别句子的正确率接近80%，在低水平的句子识别中正确率为50% 背景噪音。在2岁之前接受CI治疗的先天失聪儿童几乎达到了正常的比率 关于言语和语言发展的。CI甚至可以显著改善成年人的沟通能力 他们有相当大的残余声听力。这些进步从集体中受益匪浅 一系列科学学科的研究人员的努力，从细胞生物学，生理学，材料科学， 信号处理，语言学和认知学。这种跨学科的协作和合作一直是 在很大程度上是通过一系列两年一次的会议促进的，这些会议始于1983年的戈登会议。这些 会议是与独联体有关的唯一论坛，在这个论坛中，科学研究问题是唯一活跃的焦点。 为推动这一领域向前发展做出贡献的听觉社区的参与者。不过，即使是最好的CI用户 在挑战听力时，在音乐感知和言语感知方面面临显著限制 环境。CIAP的长期目标是产生尖端的研究想法，以改进设计和 听觉假体的功能。具体目标是：(1)为演讲提供一个全球论坛； 讨论最新和最高质量的研究，(2)有利于：传播新研究的氛围 通过科学讨论的发现，刺激新的研究路线，并通过 社交网络，以及(3)为年轻的研究人员和该领域的许多实习生提供机会介绍他们的 与成熟的调查人员合作并建立网络。CIAP会议使用戈登研究会议模式 有组织能力，有充足的时间在计划内进行讨论，无计划的时间鼓励自发 非正式讨论和集思广益，以及参与者在那里度过大部分时间的与世隔绝的“静修”地点 与其他与会者一起醒着的时间。
