Peter Torre III

Dr. Peter Torre III is Professor of Audiology at San Diego State University and Director of the Recreational Noise Exposure and Hearing Lab. His research examines auditory function in HIV-affected populations and noise-induced hearing loss in young adults.

Research focuses on:

• HIV-related auditory and cognitive impairments
• Neurodevelopmental effects of perinatal HIV exposure
• Recreational noise exposure risks
• Auditory-gut-brain axis interactions

Dr. Torre's work utilizes neuroimaging, psychoacoustic testing, and longitudinal cohort studies to investigate central auditory processing disorders, white matter changes in HIV-positive children, and diagnostic tools for HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders.
