Linnett Sanchez
BA(Hons) ANU, BSpThQueensland, MSc(PHC)Flinders
Linnett Sanchez is a Senior Lecturer in Audiology and Course Co-ordinator of the Master of Audiology Programme. She enjoys academic teaching, but remains an active clinical audiologist with a predominantly paediatric focus. Her main area of clinical and research expertise is central auditory processing (CAP), both normal and disordered. She practices in the FUSA Audiology Clinic, which is a state wide centre of referral for children, and some adults, with suspected CAP difficulties.
In audiological practice with adults, Linnett is interested in people with acquired hearing loss, both noise induced and age-related, and in those experiencing tinnitus. She is a co-investigator in The Australian Longitudinal Study of Ageing. Linnett participates in the administrative activities of the department, School of Medicine and Faculty of Health Sciences, where she is Chair of the Faculty Staff Development committee. Highlights of her professional life include periods of study leave spent in Rochester, New York; Bristol, England, Cardiff, Wales and Leuven, Belgium in 1997 and the commencement of the Master of Audiology programme in 1998. This programme is unique, (we think), in its problem based learning orientation.
