Karen Steel is a Professor in the field of sensory function at King’s College London. Her main research interest is in understanding the genetics of deafness, specifically focusing on the molecular pathways that underlie progressive age-related hearing loss. Her group utilizes both mouse and human data to explore the pathophysiological mechanisms of hearing loss, identifying pathways in mice that could serve as effective targets for drug development to halt the progression of hearing loss in the human population. In addition to leading her research group, she serves as the Academic Head of Biological Services. Karen was awarded the Brain Prize in 2012 for her research contributions and is an elected member of the Council of the Royal Society. She has authored significant publications in her field, contributing to an understanding of the genetic basis of hearing loss.
Requirements are consistent across King's Business School and Social Science & Public Policy departments for standard Master's entries.
