Current people shown here are migrated from the existing TAN Lab website. We should update titles, bios, photos, and alumni status before launch.
Dr. Arjmandi directs the TAN Lab and studies auditory, speech, cognitive, and neural mechanisms underlying individual differences in hearing outcomes, particularly in cochlear implant listeners and older adults.
Interested in auditory processing, cochlear implants, and hearing technologies across children and adults.
Studies speech recognition in noise, cognition, spectral resolution, and neuroimaging in listeners with hearing loss and cochlear implants.
Speech-language pathology trainee with interests in auditory-verbal therapy and communication outcomes in people with hearing loss.
Interested in auditory neuroscience, electrode-neuron interactions, and fNIRS measures of cortical processing.
Biological sciences student with interests in audiology, speech-language pathology, and auditory processing.
Studies neural and perceptual processes in cochlear implant listeners, including auditory neuron health and cortical processing.
Interested in the cognitive consequences of age-related hearing loss and pathways linking auditory deprivation with cognitive decline.
Supports participant outreach, lab organization, team communication, and research operations.
Interested in brain processing of auditory signals and fNIRS applications for improving cochlear implant outcomes.
