DESCRIPTION:The first hearing aids were developed over 100 years ago to all
 ow for the electronic amplification of sound. But it wasn't until the inve
 ntion of the transistor and later the integrated circuit\, that wearable t
 echnology devices became a real option for hearing loss. The ongoing minia
 turization of technology today offers smaller and more portable solutions 
 that can seamlessly connect with our personal devices\, enabling people to
  participate more fully in everyday activities.\n\nNew technology advances
 \, such as new artificial intelligence (AI) models and real-time speech re
 cognition systems\, are introducing creative solutions for specialized ass
 istive technologies to act as multifunctional devices for everyone.\n\nJoi
 n us to hear from two technology innovators\, Dr. Achin Bhowmik\, Chief Te
 chnology Officer and Executive Vice President of Engineering at Starkey He
 aring and an adjunct professor at Stanford University School of Medicine a
 nd Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute\; and Tom Pritsky\, current student in 
 Biomedical Data Science training program and the CEO and founder of Transc
 ribe Glass\, to explore unique wearable solutions being designed now for i
 ndividuals with hearing loss.
