SUMMARY:Beyond the Clinic: Forensic Audiology
DESCRIPTION:National SAA is is proud to present a special Virtual Education Series lecture on Forensic Audiology featuring Christopher Spankovich\, AuD\, PhD\, MPH. This engaging session will explore the intersection of audiology and the legal system\, highlighting the role of audiologists in occupational noise exposure cases\, medico-legal consultation\, expert testimony\, and hearing conservation standards. Attendees will gain insight into real-world applications of forensic principles\, ethical considerations\, and the expanding opportunities for audiologists in legal and public health arenas. \nJoin us for an informative discussion that broadens the scope of clinical practice and showcases how audiology extends beyond the clinic and into the courtroom. \nAs a special member benefit\, registration is free and only available to national SAA members. \nRegister \nSpeaker\nChristopher Spankovich\, AuD\, PhD\, MPH \n \nChristopher Spankovich\, AuD\, PhD\, MPH\, is a tenured professor and vice chair of research for the Department of Otolaryngology Head Neck Surgery at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. Dr. Spankovich is a clinician-scientist with a translational research program focused on the prevention of acquired forms of hearing loss\, tinnitus\, and sound sensitivity. His research includes clinical trials of otoprotectants\, epidemiological studies of determinants (e.g.\, dietary quality) of hearing loss/tinnitus\, basic research in thermal stress for prevention of ototoxicity\, and translational research on the effects of noise on auditory physiology/perception. His research has been funded by industry\, federal\, and professional bodies. He has published over 100 articles and book chapters (more than 65 in peer-reviewed journals) and has given over 60 national and international presentations. Dr. Spankovich continues to practice clinically with a special interest in tinnitus\, sound sensitivity\, ototoxicity\, hearing conservation\, and advanced diagnostics. He holds Adjunct faculty status with Salus/Drexel University and serves as an associate editor for the International Journal of Audiology. He is a former board member for the American Academy of Audiology and currently serves on the board of the Accreditation Commission for Audiology Education (ACAE).
