Postdoctoral position (Auditory Neurophysiology and
Modeling) Purdue University, Departments of Speech, Language, and
Hearing Sciences and Biomedical Engineering A 2-3 year NIH-funded postdoctoral position is available in the
Auditory Neurophysiology and Modeling Laboratory at Purdue University.
Our laboratory uses a coordinated approach involving neurophysiology,
psychoacoustics, and computational modeling to relate physiological and
perceptual effects of sensorineural hearing loss. In this project, the
candidate will perform neurophysiological experiments (and computational
modeling) to study the relative effects of outer- and inner-hair-cell damage on
the neural coding of temporal fine structure and envelope in the auditory
nerve. Experience in neurophysiology is desired, but strong candidates
with experience in computational modeling and psychoacoustics will be
considered. This position will provide the candidate with extensive
opportunities for collaboration through the interdisciplinary Purdue Hearing
and Acoustics in Science and Engineering (PHASE) program (http://www.purdue.edu/research/phase/),
which includes hearing scientists from the departments of Speech Language
and Hearing Sciences, Biomedical Engineering, Electrical Engineering,
Mechanical Engineering, and Biological Sciences. For informal inquiries about the position, or for
information about the formal application procedures, contact Michael Heinz, Ph.D.
