T-019167
— Technology Description A team of engineers in Prof. Lan Yang’s laboratory have developed ultra-sensitive, broad bandwidth optical sensors that could detect sound in low-cost, discrete hearing devices. This technology utilizes whispering gallery mode (WGM) resonators as compact photonic vibra…
Hearing Environments and Reflection on Quality of Life (HEAR-QL) Questionnaire for Adolescents (13-18)Jeffe, Donna ; Lieu, Judith ; Rachakonda, Tara
T-013745
— The prevalence of hearing loss (HL) in adolescents has grown over the past decade, with rates of 19.5% for HL of >15dB and 5.3% for HL >25dB. Adults with HL are 21% to 39% less likely to have attained postsecondary education than normal-hearing persons and are 1.5 to 2 times more likely to exp…
