Apple announced on September 10, 2019 that they have partnered with researchers on three unprecedented medical projects that will be deployed later this fall!
Dr. Neitzel’s Exposure Research Lab is one of the lucky three! Our study will focus on noise exposure through listening devices on iPhones. These data in combination with that collected from hearing tests completed through the newly announced Apple Research App. A second arm of the research will enroll persons who also have Apple watches which will allow us to monitor environmental noise exposure and heart rate.
Stay tuned for more information about this exciting, nation-wide project!
