Auditory Neuroscience Research

Lauer Lab: Center for Hearing and Balance

  • Running noise exposure tests on old and young mice to investigate how their hearing changes over time after constant noise exposure.
  • Creating machine learning algorithms to detect the level of hearing loss in mice using auditory brainstem response data


Public Health Research

Cochlear Center for Hearing and Public Health

  • Accessibility of public health departments’ social media responses to COVID-19
  • Policy literature review on explaining hearing loss and hearing healthcare to social workers
  • Epidemiological research exploring the relationship between aging, falls, and hearing loss
