Job Description: The studentship will aim to investigate the brain plasticity due to electrical stimulation of cochlear implants, and its influence on the hearing capability of patients with deafness. This position would suit someone with a strong background in neuroscience, preferably with experience of human experiments, or signal processing and computation.
The ISVR has an international reputation for research. The successful candidate will work within the Hearing and Balance Centre (HABC), which has highly motivated, first class research students researching in the area of audiology, speech processing and biomedical engineering.

The ISVR is a diverse community committed to creating an inclusive working and learning environment in which all individuals are equally treated and valued, and can achieve their potential. The University of Southampton is one of the top 15 research-led universities in the United Kingdom.

Studentship: Students should meet the EPSRC residency criteria to be eligible for this studentship.

Entry requirements: This multi-disciplinary studentship is available to candidates with the equivalent of a first class or upper-second class degree in a related discipline (e.g., neuroscience, engineering or computation). The research requires good communication and an ability to work within a team and collaborate across a range of disciplines.
