Dr. Telischi specializes in hearing loss, cochlear implantation, acoustic neuroma, and evoked auditory potentials. His research focuses on improving cochlear implant outcomes through transtympanic ECoG, cognitive testing, and CT scan analysis. He leads NIH-funded studies on intraoperative monitoring and cochlear drug delivery.

His recent publications highlight innovations in hearing aid technology, biopolymeric drug delivery, and genetic factors in hearing disorders. Despite no explicit awards listed, his work is recognized through leadership roles and clinical impact.

Dr. Telischi's team collaborates with biomedical engineers to develop novel surgical techniques and predict post-implantation performance variability. His clinical practice spans cochlear implants, skull base surgery, and auditory rehabilitation for diverse age groups.
