Here is my story about my friend and teacher, Judy Heumann. She helped change the way Americans--and then the world--understand disability. Her sudden death is a shock and a loss. npr.org/2023/03/04/116…

Yesterday, the disability community and the world lost ā€œthe Motherā€ of the Disability Rights Movement, Judy Heumann Legacy. She gave us the honor of being guest speaker at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA over the past 2 years. Thank you for changing the world and paving the way for us. Rest in Power.

"[C]urrent science is unsettled as to the nature of the hearing loss-dementia link. Yet, the lay public is prone to receive the message as a warning that hearing loss is a harbinger of dementia." - Blustein et al. A great read on an important topic agsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

The FDA opened up the market for hearing aids last year when it allowed over the counter sales. In response, brand names like Sony and Jabra began releasing their own products, adding to the new wave of designs and features that appeal to young consumers. nyti.ms/3B37b2i

I recently gave a talk at Stanford Graduate School of Business on closing the #disability employment gap. Leaders can support people with disabilities by being open, making accommodations easy to request, and asking questions after conducting research. #Employment #Leadership youtu.be/rpgecpe1zvE
