Physiology and Modeling of Auditory Perception

Die Arbeitsgruppe "Physiology and Modeling of Auditory Perception" wurde zum 16.09.2013 am Department für Medizinische Physik und Akustik der Carl-von-Ossietzky-Universität Oldenburg im Rahmen des Exzellenzclusters "Hearing4all" eingerichtet.

Zum 01.10.2016 folgte die Leiterin der Arbeitsgruppe einem Ruf an die Universität Gent.

 

Research Focus

We focus on topics related to sound encoding in the normal and impaired auditory system. The approach is to probe the auditory system along its ascending pathway to understand what determines performance in psycho-acoustical tasks or speech perception. By combining physiological measures such as EEG and otoacoustic emissions with psychoacoustics and computational models, we can look at problems from different angles. This interdisciplinary approach is challenging, but very efficient and fun.
