In today's episode of The HearingTracker Podcast, host Steve Taddei talks to two creative young entrepreneurs looking to revolutionize the way we hear. Nick Morgan-Jones, the founder of Decibels, wants to throw out the term "hearing aids" and make hearing aids less medical, more fashionable, and a lot more visible. Nick tried hearing aids for the first time when he was 10 years old, but the stigma of wearing hearing aids and going through the healthcare system was enough to put Nick off wearing hearing aids until adulthood. Decibels are a new kind of hearing enhancement device that Nick hopes will help to reposition the hearing aid as product people actually want to wear. And Pedro Costa, the founder Auricle, asks "why is it that all high quality headphones always have to block our ears?" Pedro, along with his team in Copenhagen have invented a brand new type of earphones that rest clip onto the tragus of the ear and stimulate hearing through bone conduction. Pedro says you can "feel the beat literally" with Auricle, and that the open-ear design is safer in situations that require awareness, like biking. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…

48 million Americans suffer from mild-to-moderate hearing loss. And only 14% of Americans with hearing loss currently own a hearing aid. As we move into a new era of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids, and telehealth-facilitated hearing care, startups like Lexie and Nuheara are looking to capitalize by offering more convenient, more affordable hearing solutions. And, established industry players are also looking to get in the game too, with GN (ReSound's parent company) bringing a new self-fitting Jabra hearing aid to consumers. In today's episode we talk De Wet Swanepoel, Scientific Advisor at Lexie Hearing, about selling telehealth-supported FDA-registered hearing aids over the internet. We also check in with Justin Miller, Co-Founder and CEO at Nuheara, about his company's IQBuds, which offer personalized hearing amplification for under $500. We also talk to Laura Baney from GN, about the currently delayed Jabra Enhance Plus, which is a self-fitting hearing aid that GN plans to distribute through audiologists. Consumers now have more options than ever when it comes to shopping for hearing aids. And navigating those options isn't easy. In the last part of the episode, we talk to Heather Malyuk and Danny Aronson, from Tuned, a new startup that promises to help consumers understand the options through direct telehealth counseling. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…
In 2021, most hearing aids can be adjusted remotely, from the comfort and safety of your home. It's easy to connect with an audiologist through video-conferencing services like Zoom, to discuss your experiences and receive intimate private counseling. And there are even direct-to-consumer hearing aids that can be purchased over the internet, with follow-up services provided remotely by licensed hearing healthcare practitioners. Over the next few episodes, we’ll explore how new telehealth technologies in audiology might help you on your own personal hearing journey. In today's episode—the first in our telehealth mini-series—we talk to Dr Cliff Olson about the growth of telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic. We'll also talk to Dr De Wet Swanepoel, a Professor at the University of Pretoria (and founder at hearX Group), about how scientists are overcoming hearing healthcare accessibility challenges in Africa with the aid of new telehealth technologies. And more! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…
In today’s episode, we speak with two hearing aid experts to learn about wireless audio streaming in modern hearing aids. Today's hearing aids can stream multimedia and calls from your phone, but also have the ability to tap into shared audio streams through magnetic induction loops, or "hearing loops", which are installed in public spaces like auditoriums and churches. While hearing loops are the current state of the art, we'll also learn about the Bluetooth future of shared audio streams. Today's guests include: Andrew Bellavia - Director of Market Development at Knowles Electronics, a supplier of hearing aid hardware. Dr. Juliëtte Sterkens - An audiologist and strong lifelong advocate for hearing loops and people with hearing loss. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…
In today’s episode, we spoke with Valerie James Abbott, the author of the children’s book Padapillo. Padapillo explores the emotional process family members often experience when a young child is unexpectedly diagnosed with hearing loss. Valerie shares her family’s real life journey too. After her daughter Bridget was diagnosed with hearing loss in preschool, the Abbott family did all they could to ensure Bridget's success. Dr. Carmen Jamis, a pediatric and implant audiologist, also joins us on the episode to provide expert advice for families.

These groups are filled with supportive, caring, like-minded individuals, and we can't wait to share their stories with you! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…
The term "bionic" is defined by Oxford Languages as "having artificial body parts, especially electromechanical ones." In today's episode, we learn about a new type of hearing aid that converts everyday sounds into a series of unique vibrations. Our guest, neuroscientist Dr. David Eagleman, explains how our brains begin to "hear" these vibrations through a process called "sensory substitution". We also talk to cochlear implant wearer Richard Pocker, to learn about challenges of understanding sound again after a prolonged period of near-total deafness. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…
A link between COVID-19 and sudden hearing loss has begun to emerge. In this episode of the Hearing Tracker Podcast, we speak directly with leading researchers to gain a better understanding of the connection. We also chat with someone who experienced a sudden hearing loss first-hand. In this episode we are joined by Professor Kevin Munro PhD, MSc, Ewing Professor of Audiology, Director of the Manchester Centre for Audiology and Deafness (ManCAD), and Deputy Director of the NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre, who discusses the latest research into the connection between hearing loss and COVID-19.

Science fiction has always depicted a future where humans and robots live side-by-side. We've seen stories where robots help with daily activities, return from the future, and others where humans obtain robotic body parts. Blurring the lines between human and machine altogether. Today, thanks to advancements in medical sciences, our reality isn't that far off from these once futuristic stories. And some of these advancements have allowed us to interface with our hearing system in an almost unthinkable way. On this episode, we spoke with Peter, who is a cochlear implant user. He talks about his journey to implantation and his hearing post-surgery. We are also joined by Dr. David Powell, who talks about the evaluation process and Dr. Chad Ruffin, who is a CI surgeon and CI user himself. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/hearingtracker/message…
