Description

Abstract
We are seeking partial support through this proposal to cover the expenses for the 10TH international meeting of the middle ear mechanics in research and otology (MEMRO) 2025 conference, scheduled for june 2025 at the KU leuven, in belgium. In alignment with the objectives established at the inaugural MEMRO meeting in 1996, the purpose of this triennial event is to bring together experts in middle ear science and engineering with clinical otologists to facilitate an exchange of knowledge and ideas between these typically independent groups. Previous MEMRO meetings in shanghai (2018) and denmark (2015) each attracted approximately 200 participants from over 20 countries. The 2022 meeting had slightly fewer participants since scientists from many countries, including china, japan, australia, and others, that would normally attend the MEMRO meetings were still precluded from travel due to covid restrictions. We expect the 10TH edition to have a higher attendance. The 2025 meeting aims to continue promoting the free exchange of ideas between basic and clinical scientists and to establish a framework for innovative collaborative efforts to enhance our understanding of middle ear function, dysfunction, and repair. A primary goal of this meeting is to increase the diversity of attendees, with a particular focus on engaging otology residents and faculty by hosting a hands-on workshop on methods and technologies the day prior to the formal conference. Also many efforts have been made to increase the presence of underrepresented countries. We have promoted the conference on multiple occasions on other world conferences. We have representatives from all continents in the scientific committee. The 2025 MEMRO meeting is being organized by KU leuven, belgium's largest and highest-ranked university and is an excellent center for education, research and innovation. Leuven is a vibrant city only 15 minutes by train from brussels airport allowing easy travel, and is rich in art, history, and architecture, offering attendees ample opportunities to experience this dynamic international city.
