About Aage
Dr. Aage Møller was a distinguished Founders Professor of Neuroscience in the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences at The University of Texas at Dallas, where he taught from 1997 until his death in 2022. He earned his doctorate in medical science from the Karolinska Institute in 1975, following studies at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology and the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. His early research focused on auditory physiology, including the function of the middle ear, frequency selectivity of the cochlea, and hazards of noise exposure. In 1978, Møller joined the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine’s otolaryngology department, advancing work on tinnitus, auditory brainstem response, and electrophysiological techniques. At UT Dallas, he helped develop the neuroscience program into a full department and chaired the Institutional Review Board from 2002 to 2005 and 2007 to 2017.
Møller’s research specialized in sensory systems, neural plasticity, intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM), biology of pain, and neurophysiologic abnormalities in autism. He pioneered IONM methods to prevent nervous system damage during surgery, publishing the first book on the topic in 1988 and establishing the field. Author of 24 books, including Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring and Hearing: Anatomy, Physiology, and Disorders of the Auditory System, over 200 peer-reviewed articles, and more than 100 book chapters, he served as founding editor of Hearing Research. Møller delivered over 300 invited lectures worldwide, founded the American Society of Neurophysiologic Monitoring as its second president, and received the President’s Teaching Excellence Award in 2011 and Gifford K. Johnson Community Leadership Award in 2012. He developed teaching programs in IONM, pain biology, sensory systems, and neuroplasticity, instructing nearly 500 students per semester, and endowed the Aage Møller Teaching Award, scholarships, and a Professor of Psychology position at UT Dallas. His contributions positioned the university as a leader in tinnitus research and advanced understanding of maladaptive neuroplasticity in disorders like tinnitus and chronic pain.
