In addition, I cover hearing loss, engineering education, medicine and medical technology for U.S. News & World Report and AARP as well as answering readers most puzzling questions including: Will engineering grad school help me get a job? Why doesn't Medicare pay for hearing aids? Where can I get the best cancer care? How can I protect myself from dangerous falls?
