Biography

Biography

Jeremy Duncan, PhD, received his undergraduate degree at Luther College, Decorah, Iowa. He completed his PhD in biology at the University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, and postdoctoral training in the Department of Otolaryngology at Johns Hopkins Medical School, Baltimore, Maryland, and subsequently the Department of Otolaryngology at the University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah. He then accepted a faculty position in the Department of Biological Sciences at Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, Michigan. His research laboratory focuses on inner ear and brain development, and strategies to restore hearing. He is currently the primary investigator of an NIH grant focused on profiling the molecular development of the inner ear and strategies to restore the normal cellular architecture after hearing loss. In addition to teaching and research, Dr. Duncan has a particular interest in training the next generation of scientists by both mentoring students in his lab and leading outreach opportunities to engage elementary students in exploring biology.
