The Association for Research in Otolaryngology (ARO) held its 46th Annual MidWinter Meeting Feb. 11-15 in Orlando, FL. The meeting is the largest assembly of hearing and balance researchers in the world and features presentations of basic, applied and clinical science.
Hearing scientists from Washington University in St. Louis have for decades maintained a strong presence at the meeting. This year, contributions from basic scientists in the Department of Otolaryngology at WashU included:
