Invitation from the organizing committee
It is a pleasure and great honor to host at behalf of the Hannover Medical School, Department of Otolaryngology, the European Symposium on Pediatric Cochlear Implantation 2025 in Hannover.
Hannover has started the cochlear implant program in 1984 and has implanted up to date more than 10,000 patients. It is the largest cochlear implant program within the world. The first child was implanted 1988 and from there on the concept of specialized centers for rehabilitation has been developed and distributed worldwide. The center has make significant contributions to the development of the field, both in the field of cochlear implantation in children and adults.

We are very honored to host the important European Symposium on Pediatric Cochlear Implantation 2025 again in Hannover after the first event in 1996. It will be the possibility to demonstrate the fast development over these three decades with the enormous impact on the life of deaf children and their families but also the change that has happened in the field of teaching, rehabilitation, diagnosis and concepts of care with the buildup of networks of multidisciplinary interinstitutional networks.
