Research Area

Prof. Milvae is exploring ways to understand and to improve speech-in-noise perception and listening effort for listeners with hearing loss. She studies binaural hearing and listening effort in listeners with normal hearing and with cochlear implants. She is also working to develop optimized measures of listening effort in individuals with clinically normal hearing reporting hearing difficulties.
