Mentions of the CAVA project in other media

  1. In October 2017 and July 2018, articles announcing the CAVA project were published in the Eastern Daily Press newspaper.
     

  2. In August 2018, John Phillips was interviewed by Radio Norfolk about the CAVA project. He discussed the details of the project, highlighted that the MRC had funded the project in full, and also explained that the project is a collaboration between the University of East Anglia (UEA), the Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital (NNUH) and Wright Design Limited.
     

  3. In August 2018, the Norfolk & Norwich Hospital featured the CAVA project in the 87th issue of Pulse magazine. This issue featured a front-page picture of the project team, and a two-page article describing details of the project and the device itself.
     

  4. In June 2019, John Phillips was interviewed by BBC Radio Birmingham about dizziness. He provided an overview of the many causes, possible treatments and personal impact of suffering from dizziness, and also mentioned the CAVA project, the MRC, and the Meniere's Society.
