Professional Summary

Dr. Earl completed his clinical audiology training at the University of Arizona and the University of Texas Medical Branch followed by PhD and post-doctoral training at the University of Kansas. Dr. Earl's basic research efforts have focused on developing electrophysiology techniques for diagnosis of auditory nerve survival and determining the effectiveness of virotherapy for eradication of cholesteatoma. His clinical research projects are focused on advancing the utility of electrocochleography and acoustic reflex measurments for characterizing auditory nerve function. Future implementation of these techniques may help audiologists individualize hearing aid and cochlear implant algorithms and guide future implementation of regenerative therapies. 

Education

Doctoral Degree (PhD): University of Kansas 2010 (Auditory Neurophysiology)

Master's Degree: University of Arizona 2003 (Audiology)

Bachelor's Degree: Brigham Young University 2001 (Audiology & Speech-Language Pathology)

A.A.S.: Ricks College 1997 (Spanish)

Research and Practice Interests

My basic research efforts have focused on developing electrophysiology techniques for diagnosis of auditory nerve survival and determining the effectiveness of virotherapy for eradication of cholesteatoma. My clinical research projects are focused on advancing the utility of electrocochleography and acoustic reflex measurments for characterizing auditory nerve function. Future implementation of these techniques may help audiologists individualize hearing aid and cochlear implant algorithms and guide future implementation of regenerative therapies.

My clinical practice in Audiology has included caring for patients across the lifespan in primarily hospital settings. I have also been fortunate to be involved in and lead audiology outreach teams locally, regionally, and internationally with sustained patient follow-up care delivered via synchronous telehealth.
