NIOSH and the National Hearing Conservation Association developed a dedicated supplemental issue of the International Journal of Audiology, highlighting the research presented at NHCA’s 35th Annual Conference in February 2010. The studies featured in the special issue focus on expanding the traditional boundaries of hearing loss prevention and sharing knowledge on an international level. NIOSH said the supplement is one way the agency and NHCA are sharing knowledge, innovative ideas, and practical experiences in the prevention of noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus on a global level.
