Dear all,
We would like to announce a vacant PhD position in our research group “Otology and Biomechanics of Hearing” at the Department of Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery of the University Hospital Zurich.
After
cochlear implantation surgery, recipients currently have many follow-up appointments in the clinic during which the cochlear implant’s sound processing parameters are optimized. The project, which is titled
“Electrophysiology to Optimize Hearing in Cochlear Implant Recipients”,
aims to develop and test a set of measurements to partially automate this process and transfer it to the home environment.
The project is conducted in collaboration with the company Sonova.
The successful applicant will be enrolled in the Clinical
Science or Neuroscience doctoral program at the University of Zurich. The preferred
start date is the 1st
of September 2022. The project duration is three years, and the employment and salary conditions adhere to the regulations of the University of Zurich and Innosuisse (the
Swiss Innovation Agency).
Please refer to the attached PDF for details.
Best,
Merlin Schär
