Age-related hearing loss (ARHL) is one of the top three most common chronic health conditions affecting individuals aged 65 years and older. The high prevalence of age-related hearing loss compels audiologists, otolaryngologists, and auditory neuroscientists alike to understand the neural, genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying this disorder. A comprehensive understanding of these factors is needed so that effective prevention, intervention, and rehabilitative strategies can be developed to ameliorate the myriad of behavioral manifestations. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe aim is to provide students and researchers in auditory science and aging with a understanding of the various effects of aging on the auditory system. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eContents: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction and Overview Sandra Gordon-Salant and Robert D.
