IFOS Among Global Organisations Supporting the 4th World Tinnitus Congress
The International Federation of Otorhinolaryngological Societies (IFOS) is pleased to be among a group of leading international organisations supporting the 4th World Tinnitus Congress (WTC) and 15th International Tinnitus Seminar, alongside the International Society of Audiology, the American Academy of Audiology, Tinnitus UK, and RNID.
Taking place from 30 June to 2 July 2027 in London, this landmark event — the first WTC ever to be held in the United Kingdom — will be guided by the theme “From Mechanism to Meaning – The ABC of Tinnitus”, emphasising the integration of Auditory science, Behavioural understanding, and Clinical innovation. It also marks the return of the International Tinnitus Seminar to London for the first time since Professor Jonathan Hazell hosted the meeting in 1999 — a moment of special significance for the global tinnitus community and for UK-based professionals.
The scientific programme spans 11 thematic tracks, each led by internationally recognised experts. Of particular relevance to ENT specialists is Track 10: Medical and Vascular Aetiologies of Tinnitus, led by Professor Nish Mehta (UCL Ear Institute) and Dr Alain Londero (France), covering Meniere’s disease, otosclerosis, acoustic neuroma, and pulsatile tinnitus. Eminent otologists from France, Switzerland, Poland, Germany, China, the USA, and many other countries will be part of the international scientific faculty, ensuring a truly global perspective.
The congress will also honour two leading figures in the field — Professor Shakeel Saeed, a leading neuro-otologist and skull base surgeon, as Honorary Patron, and Professor Pawel Jastreboff, a pioneer in tinnitus research and management, as Honorary President
