Offer Description

This position is part of a project that uses 'temporal response functions' (TRFs) to model electroencephalographic (EEG) responses to speech. The project utilises TRFs to create an objective indicator of the recovery of speech perception through cochlear implants. It also uses neurofeedback to promote this recovery.
