John Grose<\/a>, PhD, a professor in both the Division of Speech and Hearing Sciences and the Department of Otolaryngology, recently visited Bangalore, India, as a travel fellow to give a keynote presentation at the annual conference of the Indian Speech and Hearing Association<\/a> (ISHACON-51).<\/p>\n

After the conference, Grose gave a presentation to the student body and met with faculty at the Dr. S. R. Chandrasekhar Institute of Speech and Hearing (SRCISH)<\/a>, a leading clinical and academic institution in India, which includes a school for the hearing impaired.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndia has a thriving speech and hearing profession, and the caliber of clinical and scientific accomplishment is impressive,\u201d said Grose. \u201cThere was a large student presence at ISHACON-51, which infused it with particular energy and color.\u201d<\/p>\n

The conference was held on the campus of the National Institute Mental Health and Neuroscience (NIMHANS), which is an internationally-renowned facility often referred to as one of the nine jewels of India.<\/p>\n

Grose said his pre-conference workshop titled \u201cPsychophysical and electrophysiological assessment of the auditory system,\u201d was well attended. David Eddins, PhD, and a graduate of the division\u2019s audiology program who is now a professor at the University of South Florida, hosted another talk focusing on recent trends in hearing aid technology.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was definitely a UNC flavor to the afternoon,\u201d Grose said.<\/p>\n

In addition to podium presentations and posters, the conference included several panel discussions. Grose said the debate on auditory neuropathy spectrum disorders (ANSD) was particularly scholarly and lively. The conference included a cultural evening featuring a dance troupe comprised of children who have special needs; the show garnered a standing ovation from the audience.<\/p>\n

Grose described the Dr. SRCISH as a hub of activity with clinical practices that serve all aspects of speech and hearing sciences. The institute hopes to expand its research endeavors and features teaching facilities; its graduates are awarded degrees through Bangalore University.<\/p>\n

Grose\u2019s trip to India under the auspices of the Dr. SRCISH travel fellowship had origins in Chapel Hill. He was nominated by Shoba Meera, PhD, a graduate of both Dr. SRCISH and of NIMHANS, who is currently a Fulbright visiting scholar in the lab of Joseph Piven, MD, a distinguished professor in psychiatry, pediatrics, and psychology at UNC-Chapel Hill.<\/p>\n
