City University of Hong Kong

Neocortex Memory Encoding, Hearing

  • Prof He’s lab combines electrophysiological, anatomical, and engineering approaches to understand hearing, learning, memory, and attention. Prof. He is involved in drug development for brain disorders like Alzheimer’s disease, epilepsy, tinnitus, amblyopia, and depression. The drug development projects are carried out in collaboration with the Hong Kong Institute of Science and Innovation, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Jan Schnupp

Chinese University of Hong Kong

Auditory Perception, Cochlear Implant, Sensory Plasticity

  • The Schnupp Lab focuses on how sensory processing interprets auditory inputs to the brain and how they are transformed to underpin subjective perceptual qualities of sound such as pitch, timbre and sound source location. They are also studying how the brain learns to adapt to the statistical structure of the sounds in our environment to form efficient neural representations of sound and to support auditory scene analysis. This work has important implications for design and use of auditory prosthetics.
