Objectives
Objectives My research interests can be divided into two broad areas. First one is investigation
of auditory processing skills in normal hearing and hearing impaired listeners using
psycho-acoustic and Electro-physiological tools. Second one is improving Hearing
Screening, Auditory Diagnosis and Rehabilitation using innovative technologies
or techniques.
