Subject: [AUDITORY] Two postdoctoral fellowship positions at Mass Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School From: "Arenberg, Julie G.,PhD, CCC-A" <Julie_Arenberg@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 3 Aug 2023 14:31:44 +0000 --_000_MN2PR04MB673402C36063D5C0BDDA09C3DA08AMN2PR04MB6734namp_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable We are excited to be looking for TWO postdoctoral fellows to work with Drs = Julie Arenberg and Alicia Quesnel. Dr. Arenberg is a neuroscientist/audiolo= gist and the Director of Research and Education for Audiology at MEE and an= Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Quesnel is a cochlear i= mplant surgeon/neurotologist and the Director of the Mass Eye and Ear Otopa= thology Lab and an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School. We study cochlear implant outcomes and the human temporal bone histopatholo= gy underlying the variability in speech perception outcomes. We employ 3D r= econstructions and apply machine learning algorithms as well as use immunoh= istochemical and microscopy techniques to analyze the integrity and distrib= ution of spiral ganglion neurons. This will be performed on a specialized c= ollection of temporal bones that have been procured and processed from pati= ents who had cochlear implants placed during life. These analyses will be r= elated to audiometric and clinical data. Postdoctoral Fellow #1, will be involved in all aspects of temporal bone an= alyses: including machine learning, 3-D reconstructions, data analyses, and= presenting and writing manuscripts. In addition, we will further develop a computation model of the electrode-n= euron interface that will incorporate the histopathological data from the t= emporal bones and clinical and experimental data from living cochlear impla= nt users. Postdoctoral Fellow #2, will be involved in computational modeling of the e= lectrode-neuron interface in data from cochlear implanted temporal bones an= d living cochlear implant participants. They will be involved in data analy= ses and presenting and writing manuscripts. We are seeking highly motivated candidates who recently graduated with an M= D or PhD in hearing science, audiology, neuroscience, computational biology= , biomedical engineering, or another related field. The candidate should ha= ve strong communication skills, some programming experience, and the abilit= y to work in a team. The fellow will have an appointment at Massachusetts = Eye and Ear (MEE) and Harvard Medical School (HMS). MEE and HMS provide ric= h intellectual and scientific environments and the necessary infrastructure= to carry out the proposed research. Training and career development are a = priority.
