In this installment of Hearing Health Hour, Hearing Restoration Project member and Emerging Research Grants scientist Jennifer Stone, Ph.D., a research professor of otolaryngology–head and neck surgery at the University of Washington, discusses the relationship between the vestibular (balance) and auditory (hearing) systems and explores how advances in research in one system can contribute to our understanding of the other. Both systems are located in the inner ear and share multiple aspects of physiology. Researcher and clinician James Phillips, Ph.D., who works closely with Stone, discusses vestibular disorders and treatments. This webinar originally aired on October 25, 2021.
HHF’s research webinars are a live webinar series that shares the latest developments in hearing and balance research through our community of funded researchers. All sessions include an interactive Q&A with the speaker.
The series is moderated by Anil K. Lalwani, M.D., a member of HHF's Board of Directors and the head of HHF's Council of Scientific Trustees, which oversees the ERG program. He is a professor and the vice chair for research in the division of otology, neurology, and skull base surgery at Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons, and a codirector at the Columbia Cochlear Implant Program.
