  Transforming Hearing Healthcare Through Translational Science with Sumit Dhar

  Jan 28, 202624 minS4

  This episode explores the promise of translational science through cross-campus, cross-school collaboration between NUCATS and a professor of communication at Northwestern, that could help the 48 million Americans with hearing loss. Along with his groundbreaking research into the physiology and the mechanics of the ear, Sumit Dhar, PhD , is turning his attention to hearing healthcare delivery and understanding why so few people seek hearing healthcare. With the help of NUCATS, he is exploring the idea of creating a clinical trial network for affordable hearing healthcare as well as other living documents and guidelines that will offer experts in his field a roadmap to making hearing healthcare more accessible and utilized.

  From Bench, to Bedside, to Boardroom

  Apr 17, 202517 minS3

  <p > Priya Kumthekar, MD, didn’t have industry connections or commercialization training when she started working with small companies to help bring scientific advancements to her patients with brain tumors. She learned along the way the many steps it takes to bring new scientific breakthroughs to the marketplace specifically through clinical trials. In this episode, Kumthekar explains how she is now helping to streamline this commercialization process with The Chicago Biomedical Consortium Hub for Innovative Technology and Entrepreneurship in the Sciences (CBC-HITES) where she serves as a clinical trial translation guide and how NUCATS members and investigators from across Chicagoland un...
