Hear for Tomorrow, 24 March 2021, Royal Academy of Engineering, London

Organised by the IOA and Hearing Conservation Association. This event aims to raise awareness of the effect of music on hearing health through sharing the latest research and solutions. The meeting aims to cover the scale of the problem, what we now know, and what can be done.

World leading specialists will deliver the cutting-edge knowledge to help inform decision makers and influencers on wellbeing and health issues for amateur players, professional musicians, casual listeners and festival goers! 

A keynote address will be given by Professor Kathleen Campbell of Southern Illinois University. The theme will be around her patented D-Met drug designed to reduce the effect of excessive sound exposure on hearing loss. The event is hosted by the Royal Academy of Engineering, supported by the EPSRC UK Acoustics Networking and the Institute of Acoustics running the inaugural Hearing Conservation Association meeting.
