Research summary
AI-generated

Irina Castellanos studies how hearing loss affects communication, language, and thinking across the lifespan. Her work spans deaf and hard-of-hearing infants and toddlers—looking at how they develop language and attention through interactions with parents—and adults with cochlear implants (surgically implanted hearing devices), where she examines how cognitive skills relate to hearing outcomes.

Publication activity peaked around 2017-2019, dipped in the early 2020s, and has been fairly steady in recent years, averaging under three papers per year over the last five years.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
