Barbara E. Weinstein received her Ph.D. from Columbia University where she began her academic career as a young faculty member. A Professor and Founding Executive Officer of the Health Sciences Doctoral Programs at the Graduate Center, CUNY, Dr. Weinstein also holds a position as an Adjunct Professor of Medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center in NYC. The author of both editions of Geriatric Audiology, Dr. Weinstein is the 2022 recipient of the Distinguished Almunus Award from her alma mater, Columbia University. Professor Weinstein developed the world’s most widely used tools to identify patients with hearing loss which has been translated into 20+ different languages and is used globally to document the negative health effects associated with age related hearing loss and the outcomes associated with hearing aid use, audiologic rehabilitation, and counseling. Dr. Weinstein’s primary research interests include hearing loss, dementia and social isolation, physician-patient communication, screening of age related hearing loss, person –centered care delivery and quantification of patient reported outcomes. Dr. Weinstein has long advocated for the integration of hearing health care into the mainstream be it cultural, medical or religious institutions. Her research on hearing loss, face masks-COVID-19, dementia, and social consequences of hearing loss, have profound implications at the intersection of audiology, public health, and society. Dr. Weinstein has mentored and taught graduate students for 40+ years and still feels she has more information to share to insure that future generations have the tools and are committed to optimizing the quality of life of persons with hearing loss.
