Congratulations to Dr. René Gifford on delivering the Niparko Memorial Lecture at the Opening Session of #CI2022DC on the evolution of cochlear implant care over the past 25 years.

[Jourdan Holder @jourdanholder]

So proud of my mentor, @rhgifford. She was honored with the John Niparko Memorial Lecture today at ACIA. It was made even more special with an introduction by @LabadieRob. Excellent talk reviewing how far we have come and a look to the future in the world of #cochlearimplants!

@jourdanholder @ajdefreese Thanks @ajdefreese for moving the mark on CI outcome research!

[Jourdan Holder @jourdanholder]

Check out @ajdefreese’s poster at ACIA today that highlights the fact that daily CI processor use is more predictive of outcomes than duration of deafness and age at implantation for postlingually deafened adults. #ACIA2022 #cochlearimplants

@rhgifford Completely and tremendously deserved!

[Nichole Dwyer @nchdwyer]

@VUHearSpeechPhD @katelynaberg Love this idea!! And I’m thrilled that @katelynaberg is bringing attention to this much needed area of research. Can’t wait to continue to see the amazing work you do!!

This week I activated a new cochlear implant recipient. Today, I got an email that simply said "thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you" in the subject line. I have no words. I love my job. #hearingmatters #ciaud #cilove #AuDventures

My main #dissertation findings are published in @ASHAJournals! Improved consistency of #cochlearimplant processor use yields clinically significant improvements in speech recognition scores. @rhgifford https://t.co/Ji5RJtvIl3

‘We need to normalize cochlear implants as part of the continuum of hearing healthcare…..That story must be told and we're not doing enough of that’…#CochlearImplantChampions #TimeToTalkAboutCochlearImplants #Audpeeps @rcgp @BSAudiology1 @BAAudiology @BCIG_UK @rhgifford

If two people always agree, it’s a sign that at least one of them isn’t thinking critically—or speaking candidly.

Differences of opinion don't have to be threats. They can be opportunities to learn.

Intellectual friction isn't a relationship bug. It's a feature of education.

@shanescott829 I’m convinced it’s poison.

[Nichole Dwyer @nchdwyer]

@delphaniew You. Are. Incredible. Honored to know you, Dr. Wu!!

[Nichole Dwyer @nchdwyer]

Now begins the greatest #AuDventure of all as Dr. Dwyer!!

@keerthana__v “Fiercely gentle” I love that phrase 😍

[Nichole Dwyer @nchdwyer]

@loganrjudy Does anyone actually disagree with this??

[Nichole Dwyer @nchdwyer]

@emmalbing @whammontree I really wish I knew the context of this statement.

Happy International Women's Day to all the women who are "bossy," ask "too many" questions, and are "too much!" Thanks for leading me, teaching me, and inspiring me. 🖤 #WomenInSTEM

[Nichole Dwyer @nchdwyer]

@sarahnalfieri @keerthana__v @taylor_made26 I agree.
