Physiology, Psychoacoustics and Cognition in Normal and Impaired Hearing

The International Symposium on Hearing is a prestigious, triennial gathering where world-class scientists present and discuss the most recent advances in the field of human and animal hearing research. The 2015 edition will particularly focus on integrative approaches linking physiological, psychophysical and cognitive aspects of normal and impaired hearing. Like previous editions, the proceedings will contain about 50 chapters ranging from basic to applied research, and of interest to neuroscientists, psychologists, audiologists, engineers, otolaryngologists, and artificial intelligence researchers.

Provides an overview of a fast-evolving, multidisciplinary field Presents findings anchored in basic research that also have direct clinical applications Explores emerging approaches bringing together the physiological, psychophysical and cognitive aspects of auditory perception Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Klappentext

The International Symposium on Hearing is a prestigious,triennial gathering where world-class scientists present and discuss the most recent advances in the field of human and animal hearing research. The 2015 edition will particularly focus on integrative approaches linking physiological, psychophysical and cognitive aspects of normal and impaired hearing. Like previous editions, the proceedings will contain about 50 chapters ranging from basic to applied research, and of interest to neuroscientists, psychologists, audiologists, engineers, otolaryngologists, and artificial intelligent researchers.

Inhalt
The actual content will be based on submissions . However here are the topics the editors will promote: Topic 1: Physiology of normal and impaired hearing: hearing loss, hyperacusis and tinnitus. Topic 2: New rehabilitation techniques: genetics and neuro-regeneration. Topic 3: Auditory implants: electrical stimulation and electrical activity. Topic 4: Auditory scene analysis with normal and impaired cues. Topic 5: Speech communication with hearing impairment. Topic 6: Peripheral and cognitive effects of ageing. The authors of previous edition included: B.C.J. Moore, R.D. Patterson, C.J. Plack, E.A. Lopez-Poveda, S.A. Shamma, M. Kashino, M.G. Heinz, E.W. Healy, C. Micheyl, N.F. Viemeister, L. Demany, C.
