Research interests
I am interested in mammal hearing and the effects of environmental noise on auditory function. My research focus is investigating mammal hearing abilities using Auditory Evoked Potential methods, including ABR and ASSR, with both air and bone conduction techniques. The aim of my research is to improve our understanding of mammal hearing, particularly in species with little known auditory or communication abilities, and to support the conservation of mammal hearing by minimizing noise exposure, especially in human care settings. My research has included a variety of mammals including manatees, phocids (seals), and canines.
