The David Lab is a collaborative clinical and research group integrating expertise in molecular genetics, RNA biology, induced pluripotent stem cell engineering, computational biology, otolaryngology, auditory neuroscience, and neurological surgery. Our work is centered on developing and applying advanced technologies to better understand diseases affecting hearing, balance, and the skull base, with a focus on translating discoveries into novel therapeutic strategies.

We are committed to innovation, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the rigorous training of the next generation of physician-scientists and researchers. Our environment fosters curiosity, technical excellence, and meaningful clinical impact.

We welcome inquiries from trainees and collaborations with clinicians, scientists, and engineers who share an interest in hearing science and skull base tumors.
