The ASHA convention is the world’s largest gathering of audiologists and speech therapists. This annual convention was hosted by the America Speech-Language-Hearing Association between November 11 and 14, 2015, in Denver, Colorado. More than 13,000 people participated in the event. With the theme “Changing minds, changing lives, leading the way”, different learning activities were arranged: pre-convention workshops, special interest group sessions, trailblazer sessions, short courses, seminars, technical clinical sessions, technical research sessions, poster sessions, and exhibition hall, etc. This convention provides the largest platform for people of academic and clinical fields to communicate and to learn. Several important topics were summarized in this article to share with those who did not attend the conference: care path for patients with tinnitus, health literacy considerations when working with older adults with communication disorders, dichotic listening training for centralauditory processing disordered people, using evidence-based practice principles in the clinical evaluation of new hearing aid technologies, prevention of noise-damage, and a newly developed infant speech discrimination test.
