Fuzzy Logic Science Show

Do you find it difficult to follow conversations in pubs? People not speaking clearly? It may be that your ears don't work as well as the used to. There's a growing number of people across the planet who need help with hearing. It may be more than just a social inconvenience. Looking blankly at your boss is not good for your career. And did you know that if you let it go, you may permanently lose the ability to process some sounds. Today's guest on Fuzzy in an inspirational researcher and advocate for those who need help with hearing. Dr Elaine Saunders has a history with the pioneering cochlear implant project, and is now part of Blamey & Saunders. You may think of a hearing aid as just a small amplifier stuck on top of your ear, but for good hearing you need a lot than that. In this interview Dr Saunders describes new Australian technology  that strives to improve hearing for an affordable price. Interview by Rod
