Funded projects

EarOpener: Learning auditory categories by means of brain signals (2011-2016)

Learning to perceive the sounds of a foreign language requires many hours of training, and nonnative adult listeners rarely achieve native-like levels of performance. Here, we seek to solve this problem by developing a neurofeedback device. I am involved in this project as a team leader and working with Alex Brandmeyer, Peter Desain, Christian Hoffman, James McQueen, Loukianos Spyrou, Jana Krutwig, Eliana Garcia-Cossio (STW, No.11141).
