Li Qi - Using 1000-Hz Tympanometry to Reduce False-positive
Rates in Newborn Hearing Screening
Abstract:
This study is aimed to answer if 1000-Hz typanometry approach
is as effective in NICU babies as in healthy full term age group
and how to integrate this approach efficiently with the current
existing tests in newborn hearing screening. The outcome of
this study may reduce the fals positive rates.

Brea Chouinard - The Behavioural and Neurobiological
Impact of Computer Based Language Training in Chronic Aphasia
Abstract:
Brain Fitness is a commercially available software program
that has the potential to be a novel, cost-effective, community-based
treatment. Our project is part of a larger study that will use
fMRI and standardized S-LP assessments before and after completion
of Brain Fitness to evaluate changes in people with aphasia.
CASLPA would like to thank Saint Elizabeth for their generous
