Boulder resident Jim Kasic (EngrPhys’89, MChemEngr’93) is president and CEO of Boulder-based Sophono Inc. The company has received federal approval for its new Otomag Alpha 1 Bone Conduction Hearing System. It is designed for patients with conductive hearing loss and replaces the functions of that part of the ear. Magnetic discs hold the device in place, eliminating the need for a titanium abutment.
