Achievements and Distinctions

Stephanie gained her PhD in 3D sound reproduction through study at OrangeLabs (Lannion, France), the Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique/Musique (IRCAM, Paris France) and the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées (INSA, Lyon France). She graduated in march 2009.

She has a technological background (BSc in electronic and signal processing and MSc in acoustics) and tends to apply it to perceptive studies.

Before coming to SARC, she was involved in a virtual reality based tinnitus research project with IRCAM and the Hopital Européen Georges Pompidou (Paris, France). She joined the research and teaching staff at SARC in October 2009.
