- James Grunkemeyer, PhD, Resident Assistant Professor, Affiliated with Dr. Laura Hansen’s lab
- Sarath Vijayakumar, PhD, Resident Assistant Professor, Affiliated with Dr. Jian Zuo’s lab. My research interests include screening and validation of candidate drugs having therapeutic potential for noise-induced hearing loss, identifying molecular targets for tinnitus treatment, and elucidating the genetic basis of vestibular dysfunction. I use a combination of virtual drug screening, next generation sequencing, bioinformatics, mouse genetics, far-field evoked potential recordings and video oculography in my work
- Marisa Zallocchi, PhD, Assistant Professor, Affiliated with Dr. Jian Zuo’s lab. The focus of my research is to look for pharmacological therapies to protect hair cells from different insults. Part of this work is being funded by the Department of Defense. Additionally, I am interested in Usher syndrome and the possible existence of signaling cascade involved in hair cell maturation
