Best wishes, Marcel van Gerven The department of Ear, Nose and Throat surgery is looking for an enthusiast= ic PhD candidate with machine learning experience. Within this study you wi= ll focus on people with a cochlear implant. Are you the candidate we are lo= oking for? You will develop methods for signal processing to tackle the problems that = cochlear implant (CI, electrical inner ear prosthesis) users face in their = daily lives. Even though CIs are extremely helpful tools for people with se= vere-to-profound hearing loss, their help is drastically limited in noisy e= nvironments, such as workplaces and classrooms. To address this limitation,= you will develop advanced and personalized machine learning solutions for = fundamental problems such as sound source localization and noise reduction = in ecologically valid settings. This project is a close collaboration betwe= en the Radboud University and LUMC. It will be supervised by Prof. van Gerv= en (RU), Dr. G=FC=E7l=FCt=FCrk (RU), Prof. Frijns (LUMC) and Dr. Briaire (L= UMC). You will be employed by the Centre for Audiology and Hearing Implants= at the LUMC, but you will also be affiliated with and spend most of your t= ime at the Artificial Intelligence department of the Donders Institute for = Brain, Cognition and Behaviour in Nijmegen. As part of the NWO Crossover IN= TENSE consortium, you will have the opportunity to collaborate and interact= with renowned experts and industry representatives from all branches of ne= urotechnology. You will also benefit from the extensive training program of= the Donders Graduate School and the special career development programs of= the INTENSE consortium.
