The position is supported by grants from the Nati= onal Institutes of Health (NIDCD) and the hearing-aid industry. The positio= n involves cognitive and auditory testing as well as developing computation= al models of speech intelligibility and sound quality for adults wearing bi= lateral digital hearing aids. Our program of research considers variability= in speech understanding among older listeners; how cognition contributes t= o that variability; and the extent to which those issues can be addressed w= ith specific hearing aid signal-processing strategies. We also work on the = development of objective metrics for the prediction of sound quality and sp= eech intelligibility with binaural hearing aids. The Hearing Research Lab (https://www.colorado.edu/lab/hearlab/) is housed = in the Department of Speech, Language Hearing Sciences at the University of= Colorado at Boulder. The Department has strong ties with the University of= Colorado neuroscience and cognitive science programs as well as the audiol= ogy department at the University of Colorado Hospital in Denver. The candidate will participate in all phases of translational research incl= uding experimental design, stimulus generation, participant recruitment and= testing, data collection and statistical analysis, grant administration, s= upervision of student research assistants, and dissemination of results at = scientific conferences and in research publications. The successful candid= ate will work on the modeling of perceptual datasets for the goal of develo= ping objective metrics for predicting speech intelligibility and sound qual= ity. The candidate will also attend professional skills training workshops = offered through the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs. The position is initially supported for one year. Additional years of suppo= rt may be available contingent on satisfactory progress and availability of= grant funds. Mentorship in grant writing will be available for candidates = who wish to seek independent funding. Salary is commensurate with NIH post-= doctoral stipend levels. The University of Colorado offers excellent benefits<https://www.cu.edu/cu-= careers/perks/cu-boulder>, including medical, dental, retirement, paid time= off, tuition benefit and ECO Pass. The University of Colorado Boulder is o= ne of the largest employers in Boulder County and offers an inspiring highe= r education environment. Learn more about the University of Colorado Boulde= r<http://www.colorado.edu/about>. The successful candidate will have a PhD or equivalent research experience = in a field related in engineering, audiology, hearing science or cognitive = science. The candidate will also have strong computational and signal proc= essing skills. Strong communication and organizational skills, as well as t= he ability to work effectively as part of an interdisciplinary team, are al= so required. To apply, please submit the following materials to https://jobs.colorado.ed= u/jobs/JobDetail/?jobId=3D18218 <http://colorado.avature.net/mailRedir.php?= u=3D31271&code=3DewkmrPQjOjyRuvuvzH0yEm5b_vkKX0D-&link=3D4&transformedUrl= =3Db59dcaee0aa48cd5f9d4e7c898d487b8e5d1643f9b71b76e08146c1a9023469c> 1.
