I am a PhD student in the Hearing group, part of Laboratoire Psychologie de la Perception (Université Paris Descartes, CNRS UMR 8158) and Institut d'Etudes Cognitives (Ecole normale supérieure - Ens).
I am co-directed by Christian Lorenzi (Hearing group, Ens, France) and Brian C.J. Moore (Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Cambridge, UK).
I am funded by a PhD grant from Neurelec and ANRT (convention CIFRE).



Research Interests

I am interested in the role of low- and mid-frequency range information on speech intelligibility in noise, and especially on speech masking release. I am focusing on the influence of temporal fine structure processing and frequency resolution on temporal and spectral speech masking release, for normal-hearing and hearing-impaired listeners.
I am also working on the influence of an electro-acoustic (hybrid) stimulation on speech masking release in cochlear implantees using the implant DUAL© developed by Neurelec.


I co-organised the workshop New Ideas in Hearing: Hot Topics in Audiology, which was hold in the Ens in April 2012. All the information about this workshop can be found here.
