Dania Rishiq

Dr. Dania Rishiq serves as an Assistant Professor of Audiology within the Department of Communication Disorders at the School of Allied Health Professions, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center (LSUHSC), where she holds a PhD in Speech and Hearing Science and contributes extensively to teaching, research, and institutional service.

Her research program emphasizes Auditory Electrophysiology, particularly speech-evoked auditory brainstem responses, while investigating cardiovascular health impacts on auditory pathways, cognition-hearing interrelationships, and gait/postural stability as outcome metrics for audiologic interventions like hearing aids and auditory training. This work bridges clinical audiology with physiological and neurological assessment methodologies.

Dr. Rishiq actively participates in academic governance through the SAHP Grants and Research Committee and Audiology Admissions Committee, though no specific awards or funded grants are documented. Her teaching portfolio includes Advanced Electrophysiological Techniques, Psychoacoustics and Speech Perception, Geriatric Audiology, Hearing and Speech Science, and Adult/Pediatric Aural Rehabilitation courses, reflecting comprehensive expertise across audiology subdisciplines.
