Hearing aid research conference

摘要 2010年和2012年国际助听器研究会议（IHCON）将是两年一次的研究会议的第六次和第七次会议，该会议是由前两次助听器研究会议，箭头湖会议， 高级助听器研究问题，由House Ear Institute（HEI）从1990年至1998年每两年主办一次，助听器研究与开发会议由国家耳聋和其他交流研究所每两年共同主办一次 疾病（NIDCD）和退伍军人事务部（DVA）从1995年至1997年。前几次会议的目的是通过交流当前的研究来增进我们的知识和促进研究与发展的进展 助听器的作用是提高听力，减少听力损失。会议的一个特点是他们能够汇集对助听器研究进步至关重要的学科和专业。2010年和2012年IHCON的主要目标是在以前会议的基础上，提供一个多学科的研究会议，以更好地满足助听器研究和开发领域的需求。

Abstract The 2010 and 2012 International Hearing Aid Research Conferences (IHCON) will be the sixth and seventh meeting of a biennial research conference formed by combination of two previous hearing aid research conferences, the Lake Arrowhead Conference, Issues in Advanced Hearing Aid Research, sponsored biennially by House Ear Institute (HEI) from 1990-1998 and the Hearing Aid Research and Development Conference co-sponsored biennially by the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) and the Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA) from 1995-1997. The purpose of the previous conferences has been to advance our knowledge and to facilitate progress in research and development through the exchange of current research findings and technical advancements related to the treatment of hearing impairment with hearing aids. A hallmark of the conferences has been their ability to draw together the disciplines and specialties essential to the advancement of hearing aid research. A primary goal of the 2010 and 2012 IHCONs is to build upon the strengths of the previous conferences to offer a multidisciplinary research conference that will better meet the needs of the hearing aid research and development field.
