Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Genetics
  • Voice Science

Background:

  • Voice has emerged as a significant subspecialty within otolaryngology.
  • Current understanding of the genetic basis of voice production and disorders is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the need for genetic research in voice science.
  • To explore the relationship between genetics, vocal tract structure/function, and voice characteristics.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on advances in voice and genetics.
  • Identification of research gaps in the genetics of voice.

Main Results:

  • The genetic underpinnings of voice are not well understood.
  • Genetic factors likely influence vocal tract anatomy and physiology.

Conclusions:

  • Genetic research is essential for advancing the field of voice.
  • Understanding voice genetics will illuminate mechanisms of normal and abnormal voice function.
