Research Council (KPS, MC_qA137918; G0300212), European Commission (KPS, EUMODIC contract
LSHG-CT-2006-037188), Action on Hearing Loss (KPS), the Haigh Fellowship in age related
deafness (SJD), and Deafness Research UK (SJD). This work made use of data and samples
generated by the 1958 Birth Cohort (

http://www.bristol.ac.uk/alspac/,
http://www.cls.ioe.ac.uk/ncds,
http://www.esds.ac.uk/findingData/ncds.asp) under grant G0000934 from the Medical Research Council and grant 068545/Z/02 from
the Wellcome Trust. Genotyping was undertaken as part of the Wellcome Trust Case-Control
Consortium (WTCCC) under Wellcome Trust award 076113, and a full list of the investigators
who contributed to the generation of the data is available at
