Research projects
Biological diversity in plasticity and adaptation
1. Restoring binaural hearing in children with single sided deafness
2. Individual anatomic factors in underperforming patients
3. Neural mechanisms of cross-modal plasticity in Hearing Impairment (animal model)
4. Audio-tactile brain plasticity in children using cochlear implants
Multimodality and optimisation of cognitive resources
5. Temporal course of auditory, labial, and manual signals in Cued Speech perception
6. Exploiting the somatosensory function in hearing impaired subjects for understanding and rehabilitating the perceptuo-motor loop in speech communication
7. Improving integration of audio-visual speech cues in children with hearing impairment
8. Effortful listening and auditory learning in children with hearing impairment
9. Theory of mind, language and cognitive skills in deaf and deafblind children (Usher syndrome) fitted with cochlear implants
10. Automatic recognition and generation of Cued Speech using deep learning
Environment and enhancement of language skills
11. The acquisition of multiple spoken languages in deaf children with cochlear implants who grow up in plurilingual contexts
12. Multimodal communication among deaf and hearing interactants in the presence of sensory and communication asymmetries
13. Spelling ability and associated skills
14. Sustaining oral communicative skills in children with hearing impairment
15. The phonological body – body movements to accompany linguistic development in deaf children
