Title: Soundscapes in audiology (‘Soundscapes in beeld’)

Description:

The main discussion of the day revolved around understanding how our surrounding sound environment impacts our hearing, communication, ability to function, and overall well-being. Several specialists covered different aspects of this issue. One focused on the correlation between soundscapes and audiology. Another addressed the problem of patients hearing humming sounds. The impact of residing and working in noisy areas was also explored. Furthermore, the topic of acoustics in classrooms was examined, and personal noise exposure was also investigated. The symposium was overseen by a moderator. Further details can be found on the relevant university website.
