Hearing loss is often brought up as a risk factor for dementia, especially later on in life but what exactly explains that link? On this episode of Brain Waves, we dive into the changes that happen cognitively and physically due to hearing loss, and why it links to a dementia risk. We speak to neurogeneticist Dr Azlina Ahmad Annuar and neurophysiologist Dr Kumar Seluakumaran, both from Universiti Malaya.
