Working closely with physicians of the House Clinic, CARE Center professionals provide a comprehensive interdisciplinary evaluation of a child's hearing abilities, determine appropriate treatments and make recommendations for long-term care. The Center's research laboratories continue to advance scientific knowledge of normal development of auditory and speech/language processing functions through applied and basic research. Our scientists are tracing the maturation of the auditory system from birth to 18 years of age and the impact hearing loss has on that process. This information will be used to develop more age-appropriate evaluation procedures and auditory rehabilitation techniques.
