Project Description
Short description: DC6 will analyse biosamples to identify determinants of adverse tissue outcomes associated with bone conduction hearing implants (BCHI). Using clinical data, microbiome analysis, and tissue biopsies, the project aims to develop objective measures of implant health and refine patient risk profiles. This will inform personalised treatment strategies and evaluate how surgical setting and techniques influence microbiota, proteomics, and biomarkers related to implant adverse outcomes.
