Auditory Tests

This week we're working with F.J. Gallun, PhD from the National Center for Rehabilitative Auditory Research (NCRAR) & Veteran's Affairs (VA) in Portland! We're developing protocols to run auditory exams in our hearing lab. Once we're ready to run the audiological exams, we'll be ready to start training with our brain game. While you're anxiously awaiting our results, check out the https://braingamecenter.ucr.edu!!

About This Project

Hearing loss is one of the top disabilities facing veterans, with over $1 Billion in disability payments per year. Auditory dysfunction (AD) can lead to isolation and depression due to difficulty in understanding speech. Sadly, veterans are left to cope with AD, which has no accepted treatments. To better serve our veterans, we are developing a novel approach to treat AD, by training the auditory cortex to better process complex sounds.
