Undergraduate Student,
Neuroscience
College of Liberal Arts & Sciences
Research interests: "I’m interested in researching how hearing works in the brain and how auditory conditions affect how hearing works on multiple levels. I’ve seen family members struggle with hearing issues such as otosclerosis and auditory processing disorder and struggle with hearing issues myself, so I’m very interested in researching how exactly these conditions affect hearing (and possibly other senses) and what we can do to reduce the effects these conditions have on hearing."
