- Christian Doppler Lab for Inner Ear Research
Head: Christoph Arnoldner
Research Area: This CD laboratory investigates the underlying mechanisms of inner ear diseases and researches various therapeutic approaches for the treatment of hearing loss. The high prevalence of hearing loss worldwide and the expected increase in hearing loss require innovative research strategies to improve patient care.

Research interests
My research within the Christian Doppler Lab for Inner Ear Research mainly focuses on translational research with the aim to help better understand and treat diseases of the inner ear. By performing experiments in small and large animal models, I investigate cochlear implantation trauma, novel pharmacotherapies, and drug delivery strategies. Besides my lab work, I study clinical outcomes following vestibular schwannoma surgery.
