David Myers will describe progress, in Europe and in west Michigan, toward a world in which hearing aids serve not only as sophisticated microphone amplifiers, but also as customized loudspeakers. He will also share his vision for how "hearing aid compatible assistive listening" could enrich the lives of America's hard of hearing people and lessen the stigma of hearing aids and hearing loss.
