The goal of research is to acquire an accurate description of the electric field inside an implanted cochlea through validated 3D numerical simulations. The simulation process should accommodate different cochlear geometries and stimulation patterns. Results from this simulation tool will be used to design better personalized cochlear implants with less energy consumptions in the future.
