  • 2018 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

Donata Oertel was affiliated with the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the United States. Their research primarily focused on neuroscience and engineering disciplines, with particular attention to subfields such as sensory systems, cognitive neuroscience, speech and hearing, electrical and electronic engineering, and biomedical engineering.

The scientist's main research topics encompassed hearing, cochlea, tinnitus, and genetics. Additional areas included hearing loss and rehabilitation, noise effects and management, neural dynamics and brain function, advanced memory and neural computing, and acoustic wave phenomena research.

Donata Oertel published in notable venues, with multiple papers appearing in The Journal of Comparative Neurology and eNeuro. Key recent publications included:

  • "Local targets of T-stellate cells in the ventral cochlear nucleus," 2022, The Journal of Comparative Neurology
  • "Imaging Voltage Globally and in Isofrequency Lamina in Slices of Mouse Ventral Cochlear Nucleus," 2023, eNeuro
  • "Cover Image, Volume 530, Issue 16," 2022, The Journal of Comparative Neurology

Their frequent collaborators consisted of several scientists, including Philip H. Smith (3 coauthored works), Xiao-Jie Cao (2), Yihe Ma (1), Wen-Chi Shu (1), and Lin Lin (1).

Donata Oertel was recognized by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), having been named a Fellow in 2018.
