Resume
Academic Achievements
- Published numerous academic papers, available through her Google Scholar page; Received ERC Proof-of-Concept funding for CochSyn, a diagnostic test for cochlear synaptopathy screening in humans; Successfully secured IOF funding for the CoNNear innovation project.
Research Experience
- Leading multiple research projects including but not limited to EIC Transition Grant, EarDiTech Precision Hearing Diagnostics and Augmented-hearing Technologies, FWO Machine-hearing 2.0; Participated in completed projects such as FWO Modeling of Sensorineural Hearing Loss Effects, ERA-NET CoSySpeech Functional Role of Cochlear Synaptopathy for Speech Coding in the Brain, etc.
Background
- Prof. Sarah Verhulst leads the Hearing Technology Lab, adopting an interdisciplinary approach to studying how sound and speech are encoded along the auditory pathway. By combining computational modeling with multi-channel EEG, otoacoustic emissions, and psychoacoustics, the lab offers a comprehensive view on how hearing works and how it is degraded after hearing loss.
Miscellany
- Engaged in various international conferences like ARO Conference, WCA Conference; Active on LinkedIn.
