Title: Can we prevent hearing decline?

Description:

A symposium discussing the prevention of hearing decline was conducted by organizers from a university hospital’s Department of Otolaryngology and a research group. The event, attended by experts in various related fields, was structured into two segments. The first segment included brief talks on various topics such as the use of animal models in hearing research, recent advancements in auditory implants, and the COVID-19 pandemic’s influence on communication methods. This was followed by a lively exchange between the panelists and attendees. The second segment offered insights from three individuals using cochlear implants, focusing on their daily experiences and results. Attendees were also introduced to various implant models to familiarize them with the latest technology.
