Job description

  • Background of the recruitment and description of the project

    We have been studying about perception mechanisms of humans, mainly audition, using various techniques; non-invasive neurophysiological measurements like MEG, EEG and other electrophysiological recordings, psychological measurements, physical measurements, and numerical simulations. Further, we are applying knowledge and information obtained in the basic research on the perception mechanisms to developments of medical and welfare devices, optimization of audio-visual environments, and evaluation and "sound design" of sound noises.
