INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Traumatic Brain Injury Hearing Loss

Summary

Traumatic brain injury, a common injury in military service personnel, often leads to poor processing of speech in noisy environments. The goal of the current study is to better understand the brain basis for this difficulty and evaluate a new approach to improving speech in noise perception.
