The auditory brainstem response (ABR) is an auditory evoked potential that can be recorded with electrodes placed on the scalp. Juan Pablo Marcoleta, a PhD candidate at MHH, developed a board to record ABR and Waldo Nogueira contributed with code to perform the recording of the different waves contained in the ABR. These waves include Wave I-III generated from the auditory nerve, cochlear nucleus and superior olivary complex of the brainstem and waves IV and V from the upper brainstem. We were doing some preliminary tests at the APG to assess the possibilities of this self developed ABR system. Waldo Nogueira will give a talk followed by a discussion at the Ex-Designer in Barcelona (Entença 3, 08015-Barcelona) tomorrow Wendesday at 21:00 on "Cochlear Implants: The Hearing Device of the Future. This event has been organized by l'ullcec, more information here:

Dowload here Florian (see red arrow in the group picture) was invited to talk about his work with the Voice Guard algorithm in Oticon Medical devices at the Oticon Scientific Meeting from 24th to 25th of September. He visited the manufacturer facilities and was able to listen to a lot of interesting talks from other researchers across the globe.
We are proud to welcome our newester member to the APG: Daniel Alrutz! Daniel has a background in theoretical physics at the Leibniz University in Hanover. He became interested in a Ph.D. in auditory prostethics by his girlfriend who works as a speech therapist for deaf children. His Ph.D. will deal with the modelling side of electro-acoustic stimulation or hearing (EAS) and he started at the 1st of August. For details about his Bachelor's and Master's thesis, visit our People page. We wish Daniel all the best for his coming Ph.D. and a lot of great experiences! We started our own Facebook page to better reach out to anyone who is interested in our research and the people behind the APG. Be sure to like the page for updates!
The APG had a very intense and fruitful CIAP 2017! We contributed with 5 posters by Benjamin Krüger, Florian Langner, Snandan Sharma, Nawal El Boghdady and Silke Klawiter and two talks by Waldo Nogueira (Invited) and Marina Imsiecke. Moreover we had great discussions and had a lot of fun in this great conference!
Florian Langner presented a poster at the IFOS 2017 in Paris on the Effect of dynamic range in different stages of signal processing in Cochlear Implant Listeners on Spech
