This project will investigate how individuals familiarise with their conversational partners during a dialogue. The student will run an experiment to compare how the neural processing of speech changes as we learn about our interlocutor in different conversational scenarios. The project involves the design of a new experiment, collecting electrical brain data, and analysing that data with machine learning methods. This is part of a bigger project led by a PhD students in my team.
You will join a research team composed of the principal investigator, a postdoctoral researcher, and six PhD students. The team meets weekly to discuss exciting ongoing work from within and outside the team, which is also an opportunity for Master’s students to experience research life and hear about the latest advances in brain research (especially speech, language, and music processing).
