This year, much-discussed topics have included over-the-counter hearing aids and results from the ACHIEVE study regarding hearing intervention and cognition. But that doesn’t cover everything. Here are some of my favorite features from The Hearing Review in 2023 that cover a wide range of topics and perspectives that I think are worth revisiting. You’ll find these and many additional articles as well as news and more on www.hearingreview.com.
