    Talk Title: Progress and Challenges in Improving Cochlear Implant Performance

    Abstract: Progress and Challenges in Improving Cochlear Implant Performance

    Cochlear implants are highly successful sensory neuroprosthetics for restoring functional sound sensations to severely and profoundly deaf individuals. Despite much progress over the last two decades, the field continues to evolve as new technologies and new understanding of stimulation mechanisms become available. A significant barrier to progress is high variability in speech reception performance across patients receiving similar technology. The presentation will outline the general operational principles of cochlear implantation and will describe key issues in the design and application of these systems. New insights into the basis of the high variability of outcomes will be described along with a new perspective on how to redefine the overall cochlear implant design problem.
