Description
Our research group focuses on investigation of spatial hearing in asymmetrical hearing losses that are treated with different hearing provisions in both ears. For example, when a hearing aid is used in conjunction with a normal hearing ear or a cochlear implant. Our results show that precise interaural alignment in the temporal and spectral domain is necessary to improve spatial hearing. In particular, compensating for differences in the processing delays of the devices seems to be a promising approach to improve spatial hearing abilities, such as sound localization and speech understanding in noisy environments.
