Yesterday was the 9 month anniversary of my #CochlearImplant switch on. 9 months is how long people like me are expected to take to fully adapt to a CI, so I thought I'd share some reflections 👇.

CI switch-on day expectation vs reality. That initial sound? Rarely the 'magic moment' the videos show. More often, it's robot voices & static. The real magic is in the brain's incredible ability to adapt over time with hard work. #CochlearImplant #HearingLoss #CIreality

"although appearance is not a factor for me, not having to worry about knocking off the behind-the-ear processor is. I could devote a full column to the many times I’ve accidentally dislodged the earpiece from behind my ear." katherinebouton.me/2025/11/03/a... #cochlearimplant #keeplistening
An Invisible Cochlear Implant May Be on the Horizon. Would you want one?
What if cochlear implants were completely internal? No more behind the ear processor, no more magnetized headpiece/transmitter, no more cable connecting the two, no more rechargeable batteries. We’…

Beat processing in #CochlearImplant users 🎶🧠

O’Connell et al. (2025) found that CI users and normal-hearing listeners performed similarly in finger-tapping tasks. But fNIRS showed more widespread activation in CI users, meaning neural adaptation + effortful listening.
