 1. ePortfolio Introduction

 

Since completing a Diploma in Audio Engineering in 1997, Matt has been developing his interests in audio, music, and audiology.

 

In 2001 he graduated from the University of Auckland with a BSc in Electronics and Computing and elected to continue with a BE in Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Queensland, graduating in 2005 (Hons, 1st Class).

 

Currently he is completing doctorate studies at the University of Queensland, concerning improvements to the Auditory Brainstem Response test and Neonatal Hearing Screening.

 

Specifically, Matt is investigating the possibility of tailoring auditory stimuli to individual physiologies. Customised stimuli may evoke larger brainstem responses, and have certain properties that could enable audiologists to more accurately diagnose the health of the hearing pathways.
