Father Flanagan's Boys' Home received a $706,494 Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031. The award funds research on audiological rehabilitation of children with unilateral hearing loss (UHL), a condition affecting more than 5 million U.S. children. The research project will investigate how auditory dosage—a metric quantifying auditory input to the affected ear based on aided and unaided speech audibility and hearing aid use consistency—predicts individual differences in developmental outcomes for children with UHL. By establishing mechanistic evidence linking auditory input levels to language and academic outcomes, the project aims to support earlier and more timely hearing aid intervention for affected children, addressing current inconsistent clinical practices in hearing aid provision. The research will be conducted at Father Flanagan's Boys' Home's facility in Omaha, Nebraska, leveraging the organization's existing pediatric audiology research infrastructure and expertise in developmental hearing research. This Project Grant represents one of multiple active NIDCD awards held by the organization, which specializes in longitudinal neurodevelopmental and communication disorders research and operates pediatric research facilities including magnetoencephalography and structural MRI imaging capabilities.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
