Maxime Niesen is a medical doctor (M.D.), graduated of “Université Libre de Bruxelles” medical school, and is currently in his third year of residency in otorhinolaryngology and cervicofacial surgery. Curious and strongly interested in the neural correlates of hearing, specifically language cortical processing, he studied the attentional modulations on speech perception for his master thesis. Passionate about this topic, Maxime wanted to pursue his work and it led him to start his PhD in October 2017 at the “Laboratory of Functional Cerebral Cartography” of the CUB-Erasme. His research focuses on the perception of speech embedded in noise, in particular the developmental aspects of this specific processing using MagnetoEncephalography (MEG).
