NextSense was proud to be well represented at the recent Asia Pacific Symposium on Cochlear Implants & Related Sciences (APSCI) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 🌏🎓

Our Institute Director Greg Leigh presented a paper he co-authored with Professorial Fellow Teresa Ching & @‌MacquarieUniProfessor of Linguistics, Linda Cupples 📄 The paper shared findings from a landmark study showing a strong positive link between the age an infant receives a cochlear implant & their later speech perception, psychosocial skills & overall quality of life.

Greg & Teresa were among a group of seven from NextSense who attended the symposium, alongside Trudy Smith, Inge Kaltenbrunn & three members of our surgeon network: Catherine Birman, Markus Dahm & Melville da Cruz 🤝

We’re thrilled to share that Australian Chinese Charity Foundation Inc. 澳洲華人公益金 & Community Bank Lindfield are supporting our project, Harmonising Futures, an inclusive, evidence-based early intervention group program at NextSense Macquarie for children aged 1–6 with hearing or vision loss.

Through the simple joy of music, this program helps children build essential communication, listening, movement & social skills, while also strengthening the emotional connection between children & their families 🎵

Over the next year, at least 28 children will benefit, including around 20 who are deaf or hard of hearing & 8 who are blind or have low vision.

We’re incredibly grateful to the Australian Chinese Charity Foundation & Community Bank Lindfield for helping reduce barriers to participation, empower parents & foster a sense of inclusion & belonging for families who often face extra challenges.

Together, we’re creating brighter futures, one musical moment at a time 💛
