Let's continue the conversation- send me a text! This week, I have the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Erin Schafer, who is a Professor and the Director of Graduate Studies in Audiology at the University of Northern Texas. Dr. Schafer has an extensive resume of teaching, research, publications, grants, and national and international podium presentations at conferences. She is the current editor of Audiology Today, past President and Journal Editor for the Educational Audiology Association, and board member for the Auditory Implant Initiative. She has a vested interest in the areas of hearing technology including hearing aids, cochlear implants, and remote microphone technology. In today’s episode, Dr. Schafer shares about her work outlining the dramatic impact of personal microphone technology for children and adults with hearing loss. Key take-away….wear the mic!
