That’s a Wrap

First Timer?

Program Chair Wafaa Kaf, PhD, spoke with first-time attendees of AAA 2022+HearTECH Expo and highlighted what’s unique about the St. Louis experience. After two years of not getting to come together at the AAA Annual Conference, it was great to see new faces and make connections with future regular attendees.

Celebrate Audiology!

To kick off the opening evening of the HearTECH Expo, attendees and Academy leadership gathered in the expo hall tonight for Celebrate Audiology. All were able to mingle with industry representatives and enjoy the food and open bar available. Presentations will be happening in the HearTECH Hub through Friday, so get your first looks in the hall tonight and tomorrow morning!
