TWILIGHT LECTURE with DAVID LUTERMAN
11th March 2010
We're delighted to welcome David Luterman back to The Ear Foundation to present this lecture on 50 years of working with deaf children and their families.
"I have been blessed with 50 years of active clinical involvement. I began my professional life as a diagnostic audiologist and morphed into a rehabilitation audiologist, specializing in helping families of newly diagnosed children with hearing impairments make the transition to their new reality. I feel incredibly fortunate to have stumbled into my life work and have found a niche that nourishes me and at the same time benefits others. Immersed in my life journey it seemed disjointed; from this vantage point it seems inevitable. At this stage in my life, I find myself more reflective with a strong desire to look back, distill my clinical experience and pass it on to current and future generations of clinicians."
The lecture will be filmed by Phonak and the video will then be accessible to download and view on our website the following day
