Subject: [AUDITORY] Postdoctoral position in binaural and speech perception From: Lina Reiss <reiss@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2018 18:10:43 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>--_000_CD0C58F6CA11E442AF0BFC360E66E7EDF17C78E5EXMB14ohsuedu_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable A postdoctoral position is available in the Cochlear Implant and Hearing Ai= d Research Laboratory in the Oregon Hearing Research Center at Oregon Healt= h & Science University in Portland, Oregon, USA. https://www.ohsu.edu/xd/health/services/ent/research/cochlear-implant-lab/ The lab focuses on binaural fusion and spectral integration, and how these = affect speech perception in quiet and in noise. Potential projects range f= rom psychophysical testing to computational modeling of data. Other projec= ts include how to apply this information to design novel training and compe= nsation strategies to improve speech perception with hearing devices. Thes= e questions are studied in adults and children with normal-hearing, hearing= loss/hearing aids, and cochlear implants. Requirements include: 1) a Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Psychology, Cognitive Sci= ence, Communication Sciences and Disorders, or a hearing-related field; 2) = Experience with designing psychophysical experiments and working with human= subjects; 3) Excellent written and verbal English communication skills. Pr= eference will be given to individuals who have experience with perceptual o= r computational models, and programming in MATLAB and/or C++. Interested applicants should send a cover letter, CV, and contact informati= on for three references to the lab director, Lina Reiss at reiss@xxxxxxxx<m= ailto:reiss@xxxxxxxx> Lina A.J.
