When you hear the words Alzheimer's disease, what do you think of? The truth is, the picture most of us have of the disease is incomplete. Alzheimer's disease doesn't start when someone starts to lose their memory. It actually starts years – sometimes decades – earlier. The Rethinking Alzheimer's Disease Podcast is an engaging, narrative-style podcast miniseries for those curious or motivated to learn about Alzheimer’s disease. Perhaps you have a family member with Alzheimer’s disease, or ca ...

Get your free 5-step plan for hearing loss diagnosis and treatment: click here
Hearing loss affects 1 in 5 people globally, increases the risk of developing dementia, and has no cure.
An astonishing half a billion people have hearing loss, which impacts their ability to communicate and connect with others. Hearing loss cases are increasing fast, especially among younger people.
For many, hearing aids and cochlear implants can be life-changing, but they can’t help everyone. But there is hope:
Scientists around the world have been working tirelessly to develop NEW treatments for hearing loss.
In this episode, Jonathan speaks to Dr. Marcelo Rivolta, a professor of sensory stem cell biology at Sheffield University.
He’s on the cusp of a major breakthrough that could mean hearing loss becomes a thing of the past.
What you’ll learn:
Why hearing loss is becoming more common
The shocking link between hearing loss and a 500% increased risk of dementia
How modern headphones and loud concerts cause permanent, irreversible damage
Why hearing loss can be more isolating than blindness
The simple ways you can protect your hearing today
How current technologies like hearing aids and cochlear implants work
About the groundbreaking new science that could cure deafness using stem cells
About Marcelo Rivolta
Marcelo Rivolta is a Professor of Sensory Stem Cell Biology at the University of Sheffield. For over two decades, his research has focused on the use of human stem cells for the understanding and treatment of hearing loss. His lab was the first to demonstrate that it was possible to create both auditory hair cells and neurons from stem cells, and his pioneering work is now moving towards clinical trials in humans.

24:08 The difference between a hearing aid and a cochlear implant
26:20 Is the hearing from a cochlear implant natural?
32:25 Can we find a cure for hearing loss?
34:15 Using stem cells to create new hearing cells
37:32 Can we reverse deafness? Groundbreaking study in animals
38:45 When will a cure for hearing loss be available?
42:25 What is auditory neuropathy?
45:06 What is tinnitus and could this research cure it?
46:46 Top tips to protect your hearing
50:03 Jonathan's summary
