Kelsey L. Anbuhl, PhD

Assistant Professor

Kelsey received a B.S. in Cell and Molecular Biology at Spring Hill College in Mobile, AL. She then earned her Ph.D. in Neuroscience at the University of Colorado School of Medicine under the direction of Dr. Dan Tollin, where she focused on mechanisms of spatial hearing. After her Ph.D., she pursued postdoctoral training with Dr. Dan Sanes at New York University, where she identified adolescence as a time of vulnerability to sensory deprivation. She recently joined Creighton University School of Medicine as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biomedical Sciences. Her research has been funded by the NIH (National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, NIDCD).

Research Focus

Research focus  
The goal of the Anbuhl Laboratory is to understand the neural circuits that support auditory perceptual and cognitive skills, and determine how developmental hearing loss can alter those circuits. This work integrates both sensory and cognitive processing, enabling a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms that contribute to sensory and cognitive disorders.
