A master degree in engineering, physics, or similarA strong background in digital signal processing
Some background in biomedical (EEG) signal processing Willingness to work in an interdisciplinary teamAn interest in auditory perception An inquisitive and creative mind, good problem solving skillsExcellent English proficiency Knowledge of auditory neuroscience and psychology of hearing is a benefitIn this project, we will measure the brain using EEG while a person is listening to sounds through a cochlear implant. The goal is to measure how well the person can hear in a fine-grained way and eventually use this to improve the signal processing of the cochlear implant.The work will involve signal processing of EEG signals and working with cochlear implant technology to present stimuli. Besides the pure engineering work, there is a strong practical component in setting up experiments, interpreting experimental results, etc.
The research group of Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, Dept. Neurosciences is part of the University of Leuven. Leuven is located in the center of Belgium, in the heart of Europe.The main research topics at ExpORL, Dept. Neurosciences are: * New auditory measurement methods based on auditory brain evoked potentials for improved diagnostics and hearing instruments * Speech and music processing for cochlear implants * New electrical stimulation for optimal neural excitation in cochlear implants * Temporal neural processing in the auditory system In these studies we focus on the chain of auditory modelling, signal processing, simulation, psychophysical tests, electro-physiological measurements, imaging, lab-implementation, and evaluation with normal hearing subjects and users of hearing aids and cochlear implants. Intensive research has led to fundamental knowledge about hearing with hearing instruments. Based on these studies, new signal processing strategies have been developed that are now used worldwide in the most recent cochlear implant systems and hearing aids. Furthermore, diagnostic and evaluation strategies have been developed that are clinically applied. We collaborate closely with the industry and several of our inventions have led to practical hearing improvements for those in need.
