Modern Hearing Loss & Conservation

  • Summary

    • Can you repeat that? We didn’t quite catch- what?! WHAT?!?

    For many of us, hearing is an essential component of language & communication. Unfortunately, the research is in, and the modern world is louder than ever. From industrial noise pollution, to jam-packed crowded cities to personal devices that deliver sound straight to our eardrums, protecting our hearing has never been more important. And no, we’re not just talking about our grandparents’ hearing. Modern developments have made it so that today’s young people are at an increased risk of losing their hearing, and at a faster rate than previous generations.

    In this episode, Emily & Aidan are joined by audiologist and University of Connecticut doctoral student Alexa Kolias to discuss how to (safely) navigate a noisy and chaotic auditory world.
