📘 Hearing Is a Human Right
The Office of the Senior Vice Chancellor for Research Annual Report 2024–25 highlights Dr. Catherine Palmer’s work to improve quality of life through accessible hearing care.
Dr. Palmer believes communication is a human right. Her research and clinical work focus on removing barriers to hearing care—addressing cost, access, and care navigation—so fewer people live with untreated hearing loss and social isolation.
Through innovation, she’s helping more people stay connected.

Their new diagnostic tool aims to identify undiagnosed hearing loss pathologies to improve auditory care, reigniting progress in the field after more than 30 years.
