Research summary
AI-generated

Charles W. Yates conducts medical research focused on tumors of the nervous system, particularly vestibular schwannomas (benign tumors affecting the hearing and balance nerve) and neurofibromatosis type 2, a genetic condition that causes such tumors. Much of the work tests drug treatments in laboratory and animal models to shrink tumors and prevent hearing loss, alongside studies of hearing and ear function. The research bridges surgical oncology of the head and neck with hearing rehabilitation.
