Kevin T. Booth studies the genetics of hearing loss and related sensory disorders, working to identify the genes and DNA variants that cause deafness and syndromes affecting both hearing and vision. A major focus is developing gene therapies (delivering corrective genes using engineered viruses) to restore hearing and sight in animal models of inherited conditions such as Usher syndrome and DFNB1 deafness.
