Mickael Deroche, Ph.D.

Education

• Ph.D., Psychoacoustics of Speech, Cardiff University, UK, 2010
• M.Sc., Mechanics Energetics Engineering, University of Poitiers, France, 2006
• Engineering Diploma, École Nationale Supérieure d’Ingénieurs de Poitiers, France, 2006

Research interests

Dr Deroche’s work focuses on understanding complex auditory processing, including speech and music, in normal hearing and in those with cochlear implants. His work contributes both to technological innovations in cochlear implants and to addressing the cognitive and socioemotional difficulties encountered by people with auditory deficits.
