Drs. Shore and Crossland at the Michigan Audiology Coalition conference. Dr. Shore does groundbreaking Tinnitus research at the University of Michigan. Dr. Crossland and Dr. Dokianakis are excited to learn and bring you the newest advances in Tinnitus management.
Dr. Shore shared some of her latest research: “The brain, specifically the region of the brainstem called the dorsal cochlear nucleus, is the root of tinnitus. When the main neurons in this region become hyperactive and synchronize with one another, the phantom signal is transmitted into other centers where perception occurs. If we can stop these signals, we can stop tinnitus."
If you have ringing in one or both ears and are interested in participating in a research study at U of M, call Dr. Shore's lab: 734-763-5159. Please note that, to participate, you must be at least 18 years old and reside within 100 miles of Ann Arbor, MI.

On another somber anniversary of 9/11, we would like to remember the first responders: 343 firefighters, 71 police officers, 8 EMTs and paramedics sacrificed their lives to help others. Thousands more rushed to Ground Zero to help, breathing in toxic carcinogenic dust. Over 2500 now have cancer. Among other problems, ototoxicity from chemotherapy treatments is causing hearing loss and tinnitus. As Audiologists we are honored to help them hear better and reduce their tinnitus as they battle cancer. Thank you for your sacrifices. We continue to be inspired by your bravery.

The impact of hearing loss in the labor force is significant: Unemployment rate for those with a hearing loss is nearly double that of the typical hearing population. People with untreated hearing loss can lose as much as $30,000 in annual income and earn approximately 25% less than their typical-hearing peers.
Before we wish you a Happy Labor Day, we wanted to stop for a moment to acknowledge the many contributions of the Labor movement in improving the lives of Americans across the country. Work safety regulations are a significant accomplishment and one that includes hearing safety.
However, despite regulations, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) estimates that 30 million workers in the U.S. (1 in 5!) are exposed to noise levels high enough to cause hearing loss.
Our advice: Protect your ears from loud noises. Take advantage of hearing technology to improve your hearing. Don't be a statistic. Contact us if we can be of assistance.
Please note that our office will be closed today.
Happy Labor Day!
