research collaboration with a major hearing aid manufacturer. The candidate should have a Ph.D. in
hearing science,
audiology, or a related discipline, with demonstrated experience
in human
auditory brainstem recordings. Knowledge of psychoacoustics,
otoacoustic emissions,
signal processing, and Matlab will be advantageous. The job
