We are grateful to have our research supported on a permanent basis by the University of Southampton Auditory Implant Service.
Funded projects
Current
£450k award by the William Demant Foundation to explore electro-haptic enhancement of music perception (2022-present). This project is a collaboration with Peter Vuust and Bjørn Petersen (Centre for Music in the Brain and Royal Academy of Music, Demark). The project will focus on haptic enhancement of music perception and how audio and haptic stimulation are combined in the brain
£568k funding award from the EPSRC for a new collaboration, with James Rankin and Farzaneh Darki at the University of Exeter, modelling the perception of haptics for hearing (2022-present). We will develop mathematical models of human perception of haptic stimuli used to enhance hearing.
£60k funding from the Del Monte Institute for Neuroscience (University of Rochester) to prime a new project exploring the neural correlates of haptic enhancement of hearing (2024-present). This project is a new collaboration with Ed Lalor (University of Rochester) and Matt Dye (Rochester Institute of Technology)
£7.5k award from the Signal Processing, Audio and Hearing Research Group at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research to explore new collaborations in hearing and haptics (2025-present). Thank you to Filippo Fazi for approving the use of these funds.
