This special issue of Trends in Hearing, entitled Innovations in Tinnitus Research, reflects the depth and breadth of the tinnitus field as it currently stands. The inception of the idea for the Special Issue was associated with the Tinnitus Research Initiative conference at the University of Regensburg, Germany in Spring 2018. This conference coincided with the closing conference of TINNET, a consortium of European
