Nathaniel Green

Dr. Nathaniel Green is a Research Professor at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, School of Medicine, within the Department of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery. His laboratory investigates the mechanics and physiology of the auditory system, with emphasis on hearing restoration technologies (cochlear implants, bone conduction devices) and noise-induced hearing loss mechanisms.

Research Focus: Dr. Green's work examines how surgical interventions and high-level sound exposure affect inner ear function. Key areas include:

• Quantifying residual hearing loss in cochlear implant recipients
• Analyzing non-ossicular sound transmission pathways
• Developing damage-mitigation strategies for acoustic trauma
• Measuring intracochlear pressure dynamics during otologic procedures

Publication Trends (2023-2025): His 15 most recent articles demonstrate consistent focus on:

• Intracochlear pressure measurements in surgical and high-noise contexts
• Binaural/spatial hearing deficits in animal models
• Age-related auditory processing decline
• Hearing protection device efficacy
• Biomechanical responses to extreme acoustics

Studies frequently utilize rodent models, cadaver specimens, and advanced pressure monitoring techniques.

Laboratory: Dr. Green directs research on experimental approaches to auditory mechanics, emphasizing translational outcomes for hearing preservation and restoration.
