In simple terms the brain struggles to understand what the ears can hear. Children with APD often display poor listening behaviours, such as poor auditory attention asking for repeats and struggling to hear in background noise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we started Nuheara we never dreamt that our products could also support children with APD,\u201d said Justin Miller, CEO of Nuheara.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2606\" style=\"width: 805px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2606\" class=\"wp-image-2606 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/kai-green.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"795\" height=\"527\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2606\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Figure 1: Primary school child, with diagnosed APD, using IQbuds\u2122 in the classroom<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe have seen first hand the early anecdotal evidence which demonstrates the immediate responsive change in some children who have APD when they are wearing IQbuds\u2122.

But we wanted to ensure we had a strong evidentiary research base first.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHaving conducted preliminary studies with other institutions, we are now well prepared to effect a more comprehensive research study with Ear Science Institute Australia, with a view to publishing the results.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cEar Science Institute Australia is pleased to collaborate with Nuheara for the purpose of assessing how IQbuds\u2122 might be utilised with children identified as having APD,\u201d said Sandra Bellekom, CEO of Ear Science Institute Australia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a Clinical Audiologist, I know this will be an important first step in informing whether IQbuds\u2122 can be used to support children with APD.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>You can register your interest to stay updated on progress here: <a style=\"color: blue\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nuheara.com\/project-life-change\/\">Project Life Change<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CONTACTS<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Australia<\/strong><br \/>\nJustin Miller<br \/>\nCEO and Managing Director<br \/>\n+61 8 6555 9999<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:justin.miller@nuheara.com\">justin.miller@nuheara.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Media<\/strong><br \/>\nRanya Alkadamani<br \/>\n+61 434 664 589<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:ranya@impactgroupinternational.com\">ranya@impactgroupinternational.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Nuheara<\/strong><br \/>\nNuheara is a global leader in Intelligent Hearing: smart personal hearing devices that enhance and amplify human experiences.
