About
Professor Andrew King is Director of the Centre for Integrative Neuroscience in the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics and head of the Oxford Auditory Neuroscience Group. His research combines behavioural, electrophysiological, imaging and optogenetic approaches to study auditory perception in terms of the neural processes that take place in different regions of the brain. He is particularly interested in the neural mechanisms by which the brain adapts to different listening situations or to changes in inputs associated with hearing loss.
