My research focuses on improving clinical assessment tools and outcomes for young infants and children identified with hearing loss across the province. To do this I identify gaps in current clinical audiology assessment protocols and address any potential barriers to audiological services. I primarily compare behavioural follow-up measures to electrophysiological measures called auditory evoked potentials (AEPs), and I also look to see whether our provincial Early Hearing Detection & Intervention (EHDI) program is meeting international standards.
