Antje Ihlefeld studied Electrical Engineering at the
Dresden University of Technology, Germany. In 2000 she received a scholarship from the Dresdner Bank Cultural Foundation,
giving her the opportunity to study in the U.S. Antje subsequently developed an interest in processing strategies of the human auditory system
and stayed in the U.S. She received a M.A. and a
Ph.D. in Cognitive and Neural Systems from Boston University, working under supervision of Barbara Shinn-Cunningham. Currently she works with cochlear implant listeners in Robert Carlyon's group at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit (Cambridge, U.K.). She is also a post-doc at Sargent College (Boston University), working with Gerald Kidd and Christine Mason. Her research interests include psychophysics and computational modeling:
Binaural Hearing : How is information combined across the two ears?
Auditory Spatial Attention: How does attention to auditory spatial features affect speech intelligibility?
Spatial Hearing : How do human listeners localize sound in reverberant rooms?
Listening with cochlear implants: Temporal coding of pitch.
