The Johns Hopkins Cochlear Center Fellows Program in Aging, Hearing, and Public Health is designed to provide an overview of public health concepts, methods, and strategies to assist clinicians and researchers around the world who are pursuing public health research and projects focused on addressing hearing loss in older adults.
Each year’s program is targeted to a specific region and held in partnership with a host institution. The program offers a blended classroom pedagogy of online lectures leading up to in-person discussions facilitated by Cochlear Center faculty.
