Please submit your application b= y May 31st 2018 online. The PhD projects are part of the EU Marie Sk=B3odowska-Curie Innovative Tra= ining Network TIN-ACT (Tinnitus Assessment, Causes and Treatments, http://t= inact.eu) and will be run in collaboration with our industrial partners: =AD- "Objective diagnosis of supra-threshold peripheral and early retro-coc= hlear damage thought to underlie tinnitus" in collaboration with Interacous= tics Research Unit (IRU), part of Interacoustics A/S. To apply, see further= information at: http://career.dtu.dk/d5a8f875-a1fc-4bd3-b863-252966d06cd7 - "Exploring innovative hearing aid techniques for tinnitus treatment" in c= ollaboration with Widex A/S. To apply, see further information at: http://c= areer.dtu.dk/a8cdd308-7116-4879-a2b3-7c26fa2ceced Both projects will combine extensive auditory profiling, subjective measure= s of tinnitus, and objective electrophysiological indicators of tinnitus-re= lated changes in the nervous system. The aim is to provide new diagnostic t= ools for tinnitus, and to use these tools for designing individualized tinn= itus management approaches. The applicant should be well-versed in some scientific programming environm= ent (MATLAB, Octave, SciPy) and have knowledge of signal processing (e.g. e= lectrophysiological and/or audio) and experimental design. In accordance with EU regulations, the following eligibility criteria apply= : - The Master's degree that qualifies for the PhD position must have been ac= quired within the 4 years preceding the start of your appointment. - The PhD researchers shall not have resided in Denmark for more than 12 mo= nths in the 3 years immediately before the recruitment date and not have ca= rried out their main activity here (work, studies, etc.), unless as part of= a procedure for obtaining refugee status under the Geneva Convention. At Hearing Systems, the goal of our research is to understand the functioni= ng of the human auditory system and to provide insights that are useful for= technical applications, such as speech recognition systems, hearing aids, = cochlear implants, and hearing diagnostics.
