This will be achieved by linking speec= h-based clinical hearing diagnostics in adverse acoustic conditions and dev= eloping and evaluating models of speech intelligibility. The PhD student wi= ll be involved in empirical measurements as well as in modelling of speech = perception. The project is a collaboration between the Medical Physics Group and leadin= g hearing research centers/clinics in different countries to facilitate mul= tilingual comparisons. The Medical Physics Section (heads: Prof. Dr. Dr. B. Kollmeier, Prof. Dr. V= . Hohmann) offers an international scientific environment as well as access= to world-class research facilities. For more information about the group s= ee http://www.uni-oldenburg.de/en/mediphysics/. Applicants for the position must hold an academic university degree (master= or equivalent) in hearing technology & audiology, physics, engineering, or= a related discipline. Furthermore, applicants must have a solid background= in at least one of the following fields: auditory perception, hearing aid = acoustics, modelling of speech perception, speech and audio processing. A s= trong interest in interdisciplinary application-oriented work, familiarity = with scientific tools and programming languages such as MATLAB, good spoken= and written English language skills, and at least some basic German langua= ge skills (after an initial period of 6 months) are expected. The University of Oldenburg is dedicated to increase the percentage of fema= le employees in the field of science. Therefore, female candidates are stro= ngly encouraged to apply. In accordance to =A7 21 Section 3 NHG, female can= didates with equal qualifications will be preferentially considered. Handic= apped applicants will be given preference in case of equal qualification Applications including a CV, a motivation letter, copies of the most import= ant certificates and the name and contact details of at least one person wh= o is willing to give a reference should be sent to a.warzybok@xxxxxxxx= .de or to Dr. Anna Warzybok Medizinische Physik and Cluster of Excellence Hearing4all Universit=E4t Oldenburg D - 26111 Oldenburg Tel. (+49) 441 798 5499 The application deadline is April 2, 2017.
