He was 33 years old. Gaetan was trained as an engineer at Compiegne University in France, then as a psychoacoustician during his PhD in Lyon, France. He completed his training in psychoacoustics and audiology during his postdoctoral research periods at the MRC Institute of Hearing Research in Glasgow and at the Ecole normale supérieure in Paris. He was recruited as an assistant lecturer of audiology in Montpellier in 2008. Gaetan Gilbert dedicated his last years to auditory research, and contributed to our understanding of speech perception for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired people. Gaetan Gilbert was a great collaborator and friend. He was genuinely motivated to contribute to hearing science and audiology. He will be greatly missed.
