According to the conference organizers, the scientific program will combine “keynotes as well as featured and invited talks with scientific contributions to highlight the wide range of world-class research and hot topics in computational audiology.”
When comparing the FFR results of 68 HIV-positive adults to 59 HIV-negative adults, the investigators found that the auditory-neurophysiological responses to certain speech cues were disrupted in HIV-positive adults, even though they performed normally on hearing tests—confirming that these hearing difficulties are grounded in the central nervous system.
The conference was organized by the American Cochlear Implant (ACI) Alliance and supported by the UHealth Ear Institute and other academic and private sector organizations.

Read MoreChildren with Tourette syndrome (TS) may process aspects of language faster than other children, a new study shows. Kids with TS, a neurological tic disorder, are faster at assembling sounds into words – the part of language called phonology – than typically developing children.
Read MoreThe type of sound processing that modern hearings aids provide to make speech more understandable may also make music enjoyment more difficult, according to a new study by the University of Colorado Boulder. The findings, suggest that less sophisticated hearing aids might actually be more compatible with listening to music, especially recorded music that has been processed.
