Biography | |
Dr Kumar is currently a senior lecturer in the Department of Physiology at the University of Malaya and is the principal investigator of the reserach projects in this lab. He has been a faculty member since 2007. After completing his undergraduate medical degree at University of Malaya, he pursued his Ph.D in auditory neuroscience at the world-renowned auditory lab at University of Western Australia (UWA) after being awarded the IPRS scholarship from the Australian government. His research interests lie in the area of control of auditory efferents, detection of auditory signals in background noise and tinnitus. In recent years, he has also been studying the hearing effects related to non-occupational noise exposure in adolescents and young adults. During his recent 6-month visit to Western Australia as a visiting research fellow, he learned about the fundamentals of Labview programming, a tool which he currently uses in this lab to develop virtual instruments that allows sophisticated stimulus delivery and data acquisition for conducting auditory psychophysical experiments. |
