Levy Lecture Series: Science and the Societal Impact of Hearing Loss

  • Date: 11/10/2020 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM  

Join Sumit Dhar, Ph. D., for a lecture called "Science and the Societal Impact of Hearing Loss."Sumit Dhar studies the sounds created within the inner ear, then examines their behavior under a variety of conditions. By understanding the physiology, he tries to design better diagnostics to test for hearing loss. It is essential to detect hearing loss early. He says, “The impact that the loss of hearing can have on a person’s life is nearly all-encompassing. Research even ties unaddressed hearing loss to diminished cognitive function, impaired memory, and dementia." Presented via Zoom.
