Research

How does Audiology India help this situation?

Audiology India recognizes the need to generate knowledge locally in order to formulate effective solutions to local people. We therefore conduct research studies and review working practices on an ongoing basis. Our publications are listed in the Publications section. We believe that the outcomes of our research will not only be beneficial for hearing health care in India but also stimulate further interest in research in this area.
