Bio

Dr. Ray Munguia-Vazquez, MD, MSc, PhD, is a Clinical Associate Professor of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at the IU School of Medicine-West Lafayette. He obtained his MD from the UAEMex in 2001 and commenced his graduate medical education in the field of Otolaryngology. Subsequently, he earned a Master’s degree in 2006 and a PhD in 2010 from the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Auditory Neurosciences at the University of Calgary, Canada.

Dr. Munguia’s previous academic appointments include Assistant Professor of Audiology at Northern Illinois University; and Clinical Assistant Professor of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences at Purdue University. 

Dr. Munguia joined IUSM as a part-time member in 2016 and became a full-time faculty member in 2022. As the Director of Pre-Clinical Medical Education (Phase 1) at the West Lafayette Campus, he primarily oversees the administrative aspects of the didactic components of Phase 1 of the curriculum, including co-directing the Biomedical Engineering-Applied Medical Technologies (BME-AMT) and the Care of the Hispanic and Latino Patients (CHLP) Scholarly Concentrations. Additionally, he teaches in multiple courses throughout both the first and second year of Medical Education and serves as the Regional Campus Course Director/Site Leader for IUSM-WL’s Cardiovascular/Hematology (C&H), Renal/Respiratory (R&R), and Gastrointestinal System & Nutrition (GIN) courses.

Since joining IUSM, Dr. Munguia has continued to publish on the neurophysiological mechanisms of the auditory system and has recently expanded his research to include Medical and Interprofessional Education. Furthermore, he is an alumnus of the Leadership in Academic Medicine Program (LAMP) from IUSM, the Leadership and Management Foundations Program, and the Minority Faculty Leadership Development Program, all of which are offered by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). Additionally, he is a fellow of the Leadership Education and Development Certificate Program of the AAMC and the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Leadership Program from Indiana University.
