Lecture Topics

Introduction

Listed below are some of the topics I cover in presentations ranging from 1-hour lectures to multi-day workshops. There is considerable demand for lectures on these and other topics at state, regional, national, and international professional meetings, seminars, conferences, and congresses. The lectures are invariably up-to-date and evidence-based and customized for the intended audience. Online virtual presentations are quite popular, particularly 1-hour focused lectures for specific target audiences.

Lecture Topics

Here is a listing of some of my current lecture topics. You can readily access additional information about each of the topics in the form of either a written paper and/or a PPT presentation (in PDF format) by clicking on the titles of the documents. Of course, anyone motivated to read more on the topics, and to seriously research them, can search for peer-reviewed publications via National Library of Medicine web site: www.nlm.nih.gov. Choose the Health Professional option, and then enter key words (e.g., "otoacoustic emissions" "newborn hearing screening") to instantly conduct your search.
