معرفی
Alessandro Castiglione is an Affiliated Researcher at the Örebro University, School of Medical Sciences, Department of Medical Sciences. His research focuses on audiological assessment, genetic factors in hearing disorders, and the interplay between aging, cognitive decline, and hearing rehabilitation.
- Education: Doctoral dissertation (2016) from University of Padua on auditory rehabilitation in older adults
Research interests span audiology, neuroscience, medical genetics, geriatrics, and internal medicine, with emphasis on:
- Cochlear implant outcomes across age groups
- Genetic mutations in hearing loss (e.g., Usher syndrome, EYA1-related disorders)
- Age-related cognitive decline and hearing impairment
- Iron homeostasis and mitochondrial DNA in sudden hearing loss
Recent publications (2022-2024) highlight his work in genetic research in audiology, aging studies, and interdisciplinary clinical audiology, with collaborations across Italy and Sweden. He is actively involved in the Interdisciplinary Research in Clinical Audiology (IRCA) group and the In HeAR project aimed at improving hearing assessment tools.
