The Chair for Sensory Neuroengineering at the new Department Artificial Intelligence in Biomedical Engineering at FAU is looking for a PhD student to work on an innovative project in the neurobiology of communication. Together with the industry partner Sivantos,
a world-leading hearing-aid manufacturer, you will investigate neurobiological mechanisms and electrophysiological markers of speech comprehension. You will therefore develop and employ EEG hyperscanning, in which the neural activity of several subjects engaged in
a conversation will be measured simultaneously. You will furthermore develop AI algorithms to analyse the obtained data. The results will contribute to better customization and real-time adaptation of hearing aids to their wearers. FAU is the most innovative university in Germany and ranks second among the most innovative European universities. It is located in one of the most attractive regions in Germany. Erlangen is a bicycle-friendly city with 100,000 inhabitants, former home of the Huguenots as well as a key location for industry. It is close to Nuremberg, a city with a population of half a million and a metropolitan flair. The mixture of academia, innovative companies, art and culture makes the region the perfect place for creative minds, keen athletes and nature lovers. To apply, please send a letter detailing your motivation, a CV, copies of your degrees and details of two referees. Please combine all documents into a single pdf and send them per email with subject “Application PhD student” to Prof. Dr. Tobias Reichenbach (tobias.j.reichenbach(at)fau.de).
