Research Interests
Dr. Phillips' current research interests are focused on the evaluation of diagnostic and treatment procedures. His primary effort has been in the development of auditory screening tests to detect hearing loss from ototoxic drugs before a hearing loss interferes with speech perception and in determining whether some patients are more susceptible to ototoxicity than others.
