The Division of Auditory Neuroscience is dedicated to advancing knowledge about:
- The neurobiological foundations of music perception, learning, and performance in children and adults
- The pathophysiology of music- and noise-induced hearing loss and tinnitus, which will affect more than 20 million Americans and half of all musicians by the year 2025
- Music, voice, and speech perception in previously deaf children and adults who can hear through the surgical implantation of electrical devices that directly stimulate the auditory nerve
- The effects of Alzheimer's disease, dyslexia, stroke, Parkinson's disease, childhood learning disorders, attention deficit disorder, drugs, schizophrenia, and depression on music perception, learning, and performance
