Research from hearing, language, and cognitive studies helps us better assess children who struggle to listen even though their standard hearing tests are typical. In this research webinar, Beula Magimairaj, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, explains how different challenges can occur together, effective testing methods, and impacts on school performance and educational needs.
A 2015 Emerging Research Grants scientist generously funded by Royal Arch Research Assistance, Magimairaj is a research scientist at Utah State University’s Early Childhood Education and Research Center. She has continued investigations in this area, now with an R21 grant from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders.
HHF’s research webinars are a live webinar series that shares the latest developments in hearing and balance research through our community of funded researchers. All sessions include an interactive Q&A with the speaker.
