Dr. Anne E Hogan is an Assistant Professor in the School of Audiology at Pacific University in Hillsboro, Oregon.  After completing her Master’s in 2002 from Southwest Missouri State University, she practiced clinically in North Carolina before starting her PhD at James Madison University in Fall 2008.  She graduated from JMU in May 2013 and promptly headed to Oregon to start her academic career at Pacific University, and was granted a WOC appointment for the Portland VA, for collaborations with the NCRAR. In January 2015, Dr. Hogan joined the faculty at Salus, serving as an Adjunct Assistant Professor in their online programs. Her research efforts while at Pacific University have ranged from surveys of clinical and educational practices, to establishing an Interprofessional Balance Clinic, to exploring the use of video games for the treatment of vestibular disorders, to now consulting with the NCHS and NHANES for the current Balance Component.

Dr. Frank Musiek is a renowned hearing researcher, scholar, teacher and clinical audiologist. His research on electrophysiology and central auditory processing has led to the discovery and implementation of numerous tools that are widely used for assessment of the auditory brainstem and central auditory pathways. His research career has contributed in a substantial way to our fundamental understanding of the anatomy, physiology and neurophysiology of the human auditory system. In addition to his immense contributions to clinical science and practice, Dr. Musiek has demonstrated an untiring dedication to educating students, from undergraduates to postdoctoral research associates and medical students/ residents. Among many awards, in 2007 Dr. Musiek was presented the James Jerger career research award in audiology and in 2010 Honors of ASHA for contributions in audiology and auditory neuroscience.

Dr. Musiek has published over 180 refereed articles and presented over 400 invited lectures and seminars and nearly 350 papers at national and international conferences, research symposia and other venues around the world. He has developed four clinical audiologic tests, three of which are mainstays of the clinical central auditory test battery. He has published eleven books and authored no fewer than 50 book chapters. His keen research and insight into the areas of central auditory processing and dysfunction, anatomy and physiology of the auditory system and hearing assessment and diagnosis have earned him a national and international reputation as an authority on the human auditory system and hearing. He is presently a Professor in the department of Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences at the University of Arizona.
