 <p>Bioaid allows the user to choose his or her own settings. A regular hearing aid is usually set up for a single setting. If you don’t like the dispenser’s setting, you need to go back to the dispenser. With Bioaid you simply choose another from the 24 on offer.</p>
 <h2 id="why">Why are we doing this?</h2>
 <p>BioAid is a research device. We have developed the hearing aid principles in the laboratory and tested it on a small number of people with a hearing loss. By making it publicly available, we hope to discover just how useful (or otherwise) it is to hundreds of people. We give you our hearing aid free of charge. In return we hope to hear from you with your comments and suggestions. We will pay attention to them all and learn from them.</p>
-<p>This is not part of a commercial operation. We have no plans to make money from this operation. We currently have no funding for this work and it is being done very cheaply. The scientific work  was previously funded generously by the British Research Councils (particularly <span class="caps">EPSRC</span>) and by Phonak the Swiss hearing aid company.</p>
-<p>We are not entering into competition with hearing aid companies but see some potential benefits for everyone with our initiative.</p>
 <p>Many people are reluctant to visit a hearing aid dispenser for various reasons. By playing with BioAid, people can get a sense of the potential benefit of using an assistive device. It might encourage them to get a manufactured hearing aid and it could, just maybe, change their life.</p>
 <p>Not everyone in the world has access to healthcare. A free version of BioAid could be a life changer for some people. If so, we would like to hear from you. Your feedback could influence the way that governments make hearing aids available to millions of people!</p>
