Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kelly N Owens"
Kelly N Owens' recent research focuses on genetic counseling and its impact on patient support for young and metastatic breast cancer patients, identifying barriers and needs in referral services through a comprehensive needs assessment.
Owens has also contributed significantly to the field of hearing loss, exploring pharmacological agents that protect against aminoglycoside-induced hair cell death in zebrafish models, indicating potential for therapeutic interventions in auditory health.
Her work extensively investigates the mechanistic roles of cilia-associated genes in hair cell function and regeneration, highlighting the genetic and environmental influences on hair cell viability and the broader implications for disorders affecting hearing and balance.
