A/Prof Birman’s interests and expertise are in adult and paediatric cochlear implants, other implantable hearing devices, otology and paediatric ENT. A/Prof Birman is one of the most experienced cochlear implant surgeons in Australia, with expertise in hearing preservation surgery, single sided deafness, very young child implantation (including the youngest child in Australia at 3 months of age) and adult congenital and progressive hearing loss requiring cochlear implantation. This has led on to expertise in other implantable hearing devices, including BAHA, Sophono and Bonebridge along with ear surgery including cholesteatoma surgery and ossicular reconstruction. Paediatric ENT continues to be another area of interest and experience.
