Overview
Background
Dr Helen Gurteen is an audiologist with a drive to improve outcomes, for people of all ages, with hearing and auditory processing concerns. Helen's research has investigated auditory processing abilities in both normal hearing and hearing-impaired populations, including examining the efficacy of auditory training to address processing deficits. This research was central to the implementation of a national service for auditory processing assessment and remediation.
Helen is employed as a post-doctoral research fellow in the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and is a member of the University of Queensland Centre for Hearing Research. She is working on a MRFF-funded project focused on improving quality of life outcomes for people with dementia and hearing or vision problems.
