Project and Position Details
The Green Lab investigates physiological and immunological mechanisms that contribute to neuropathology of the cochlea, with the aim of protecting hearing against noise and other trauma. Results of our studies are also relevant to pathology of the brain such as stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Methods used include electrophysiological measures of neural responses to auditory stimuli and quantitative analysis of confocal microscope images. Students will gain experience in neurobiology, audiology, basic research skills, analysis and presentation of results.
