Dr. Barbara Herrmann is a scientist at Mass. Eye and Ear who specializes in electrophysiology of the human auditory and vestibular systems. She aims to develop a more thorough understanding of the underlying mechanisms of these systems and optimize these measures for diagnosis and treatment monitoring.

Her primary interests include the identification and diagnosis of hearing loss in infants using electrophysiologic measures and the use of electrically auditory evoked responses in cochlear implant and auditory brainstem implant patients.
