Ph.D.
(hearing sciences or audiology)
at The University of Texas at Austin
My
laboratory at the University of Texas at Austin has openings for
fully funded Ph.D. positions for Fall 2025 (https://slhs.utexas.edu/research/ut-care-lab/team)
The area of work is very broad:
human hearing
and hearing loss, focusing on
signal processing in the human ear. Examples (not an exhaustive list): auditory neural systems,
cochlear mechanics, pediatric audiology,
auditory signal processing, biomedical signals, machine learning applications in hearing-in-noise,
etc.
Candidates with audiology or hearing sciences backgrounds can apply, and students with
biomedical or electrical engineering
backgrounds interested in signal processing, time-frequency
analysis, etc., are especially encouraged to apply.
Undergraduate students with exceptional qualifications
are also welcome to apply.
Recent sample publications to show the flavor of diverse work are listed below: Mishra SK & Moore DR (2023). Auditory deprivation during development alters efferent neural feedback and perception, Journal of Neuroscience, 43, 4642-4649. Balan JR, Rodrigo H, Saxena U & Mishra SK (2023). Explainable machine learning reveals the relationship between hearing thresholds and speech-in-noise recognition in listeners with normal
audiograms. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 154, 2278- 2288. Mishra SK, et al (2022). Hearing impairment in the extended high frequencies in children despite clinically normal hearing. Ear & Hearing, 43(6):1653-1660. Mishra SK & Biswal M (2019). Neural encoding of amplitude modulations in the human efferent system. Journal of the Association for
Research in Otolaryngology. 20, 383-393.
Please send an email with a CV for initial consideration.
