Founded in 1956, the Eaton-Peabody Laboratory is a consortium between the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, the Harvard Medical School, the Research Laboratory of Electronics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Massachusetts General Hospital.    Research interests of the laboratory span the auditory system from peripheral to central, from animal model to human patient, from normal to abnormal function, from neurophysiology to behavior, and from the molecular and genetic bases of deafness, to its treatment via hearing aids and cochlear implants.

The laboratory staff includes faculty from both MIT and Harvard Medical School, along with clinical researchers from the ENT Department at MEEI and MGH.  A number of staff and students are affiliated with the HST Speech and Hearing Bioscience and Technology Program.
