Sponsor/Award: HEARING IRC - RESEARCH GRANT - 2024 REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

Grant Amount:
Deadline: Dean's: Contact your Faculty Research Office for deadline details.
Internal: Jul 25, 2024
Sponsor's: Aug 01, 2024

Subject Areas: Hearing Aids, Auditory Perception
Description:

The Hearing Industry Research Consortium wishes to support pre-competitive research that advances understanding of the perception of dynamic spatial listening scenarios. Eligible proposals are studies examining the consequence of hearing impairment or effect of hearing instrument acoustics and signal processing on the perception of dynamic sound scenes. These could address aspects of moving sound sources or movements of the listener, as well as dynamic listening behavior. Studies may suggest perspectives to improve the generic design and provision of hearing aids, but should not be concerned with the development of specific features of hearing aid systems.

To submit a proposal, complete the application form available on the IRC website www.hearingirc.com, and email the completed application form as a single PDF file to contact@hearingirc.com. Your application has been received when you receive a confirmation via e-mail.

Application Details: Projects must be defined pieces of research with clearly stated objectives, experimental plan and expected outcomes. The level of ambition should correspond to the funding magnitude. The topic area described in the RFP should be interpreted by an applicant into a specific concrete project proposal.

INDIRECT COSTS OF 15% MUST BE INCLUDED IN YOUR BUDGET
