Daniel Q. Sun , MD

Dr. Daniel Sun received his BSE (2007) in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from University of Pennsylvania and his MD (2011) from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He completed residency training Otolaryngology -- Head and Neck Surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital and fellowship training in Neurotology at University of Iowa. He currently serves as Associate Professor, Myles L. Pensak MD Endowed Professorship in Otology/Neurotology, Director of the Division of Otology, Neurotology, and Skull Base Surgery, and Director of Neurotology Fellowship in the Department of Otolaryngology -- Head and Neck Surgery at University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. Prior to coming to Cincinnati, Dr. Sun served on faculty at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Clinically, Dr. Sun's expertise lay in the diagnosis and management of complex disorders of the ear and skull base, including hearing loss, vestibular dysfunction, and complex pathologies of the skull base and facial nerve. Dr. Sun's research interests lay in the treatment of hearing loss, through translational development of novel drug delivery strategies to the inner ear, and clinical/translational research to understand and improve hearing using cochlear implants.
