As an otologic surgeon and epidemiologist, he has translated his experiences caring for older adults with hearing loss into foundational public health research and policy. His research established the association of hearing loss with dementia, and he now leads two NIH-funded randomized trials that are establishing the efficacy of hearing interventions. In parallel, Dr. Lin has collaborated with the National Academies, White House, and Congress to develop policies to ensure hearing loss can be effectively and sustainably addressed in society.","photo_link":"lin headshot.jpeg (https:\/\/dl.airtable.com\/.attachments\/0a31feaafed4b91dc668cc73c91ed186\/20251b39\/linheadshot.jpeg)","sessions_ids_listed":"116,166","session_names":"Hearing Loss, Cognitive Decline & Dementia, Panel: Future of Medical Audiology - How Medicine & Technology will Impact Care","status":"Active","linkedin_url":"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/frank-lin-078b9a148\/","sessions":[{"ID":23313,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2021-11-04 19:04:17","post_date_gmt":"2021-11-04 23:04:17","post_content":"Age-related hearing loss in older adults is often perceived as being an unfortunate but relatively inconsequential part of aging. However, the broader implications of hearing loss for the health and functioning of older adults are now beginning to surface in epidemiologic studies. This lecture will discuss recent epidemiologic research demonstrating that hearing loss is independently associated with accelerated cognitive decline, incident dementia, and brain aging. Mechanisms through which hearing loss may be causally linked with cognitive decline and dementia will be discussed as well as gaps in our current scientific knowledge. Current studies investigating the impact of hearing rehabilitative interventions on reducing cognitive decline and the risk of dementia in older adults will be explained and discussed. Finally, this lecture will provide some thoughts on future trends in addressing hearing loss as a public health problem and the critical need to develop new policies and approaches to hearing care for adults.","post_title":"Hearing Loss, Cognitive Decline & Dementia","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"oto116","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2021-11-04 19:04:24","post_modified_gmt":"2021-11-04 23:04:24","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/fcomnow.com\/session\/hearing-loss-cognitive-decline-dementia\/","menu_order":116,"post_type":"session","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":24116,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2021-11-04 19:04:42","post_date_gmt":"2021-11-04 23:04:42","post_content":"Over the last ten years, we have seen in increased awareness of how comorbid conditions relate to hearing and balance disorders.; i.e., cardiovascular health, diabetes, cognitive decline, loneliness\/isolation as well as a host of other factors.
