Pleas= e come find us at the meeting to learn more (douglas.s.brungart.civ@xxxxxxxx= l; joshua.g.bernstein.civ@xxxxxxxx) -Josh Bernstein ---------------------------------------------------------------------------= --------------------------------------- We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join our speech communi= cation research team at Walter Reed, with a focus on the objective assessme= nt of auditory processing in listeners with hearing loss. The goal of this postdoctoral research position is to carry out research ai= med at developing and validating tests of auditory processing using a combi= nation of electrophysiological and behavioral measures of auditory function= . =95 Working with stimulus presentation and EEG analyses tools to mo= nitor recorded EEG responses to speech and non-speech inputs. =95 Developing tools to extract, analyze, and display the EEG data.= These tools are being designed to work transparently with EEG signals acqu= ired from both clinical (Intelligent Hearing Systems) and experimental (Bio= Semi) EEG systems. =95 Analyzing EEG recordings to create publishable figures to displ= ay results for manuscripts and presentations at national and international = conferences. =95 Efficiently assessing the functional consequences of the spectr= um of hearing impairment. We are seeking a postdoctoral research fellow with a passion for hearing re= search, speech perception, hearing conservation, and psychoacoustics, who i= s excited by the prospect of leveraging these capabilities to solve some of= the basic unresolved questions in hearing loss research, with the ultimate= goal of reducing service related hearing loss in the military. Education Required: Ph.D. in Hearing Science, Audiology, Computer Science, Physics, Bioengineer= ing, Electrical Engineering, Neuroscience or related field is strongly pref= erred, although individuals with a Masters=92 degree, strong technical skil= ls and a demonstrated track record of research ability will also be conside= red. Time frame: Funding is guaranteed for three years, with a high likelihood of recurring = funding in future years. Salary is commensurate with experience, but is ver= y competitive relative to a typical post-doc salary. Walter Reed National M= ilitary Medical Center is the flagship of the U.S. military health care sys= tem. Qualifications: The most important qualities we are seeking in an individual are: =95 Technical skills including programming, signal processing, and = experience with EEG measurement systems, to independently develop, implemen= t, troubleshoot, carry out and analyze auditory processing experiments. =95 Demonstrated track record in designing, carrying out and publis= hing hearing science research. =95 Experience using psychophysical techniques with human subjects = to test basic-science hypotheses regarding hearing loss, and creativity in = analyzing data sets to answer these questions. To apply: Please send us your CV, and provide a brief (0.5 to 1 page) letter describi= ng your hearing-research experience and auditory processing questions you a= re interested in pursuing.
