• Emergency Medicine

Research Interest

Current active research -> Computer-based Decision Support for therapeutic management of patients with multimorbidy, (Musen Lab) -> Effects of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) on non-atherosclerotic angina in women, (clinical trial with Dr. Jennifer Tremmel) Areas of active interest: -> Novel uses for information technology in emergency medicine. -> Effects of cognitive-based therapy and MBSR on perception of pain. -> Health and education

Research Interest

Hearing loss is one of the most common sensory disorders. The pathology underlying sensory hearing loss is the irreversible loss of the inner ear sensory hair cells. These cells are highly specialized and function to transform sound pressure waves to electrical neural signals. Since mammals are unable to regenerate lost sensory hair cells, there is much interest in investigating the potential of endogenous progenitor cells in the cochlear and vestibular systems of mice.
