Noise reduction is one of the most widely used features in modern hearing aids. In this webinar, Subong Kim, Ph.D., discusses a novel approach to measuring how well noise reduction features work for individuals and uncovers the brain mechanisms underlying individual variability in noise reduction outcomes.
A 2022–2023 Emerging Research Grants scientist, Kim is an assistant professor of audiology in the department of communication sciences and disorders at New Jersey’s Montclair State University.
HHF research webinars highlight the significant findings by Emerging Research Grants scientists. Our ERG program provides seed funding to early stage investigators, including in underfunded areas of otology, and these Zoom presentations underscore the critical impact this funding has had on both research advances as well as the scientists themselves. All sessions include an interactive Q&A with the speaker.
The series is moderated by Anil K. Lalwani, M.D., a member of HHF's Board of Directors and the head of HHF's Council of Scientific Trustees, which oversees the ERG program. He is a professor and the vice chair for research in the department of otolaryngology–head and neck surgery, the associate dean for student research at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, and a co-director at the Columbia Cochlear Implant Program.
