ZFF Talks: Mensch Maschine!

A drummer suffers from a sudden loss of hearing. He reluctantly accepts his fate and receives help in the form of an operation and state-of-the-art hearing aid technology. What role do robots play in present-day rehabilitation? And how quickly does the human brain react to sudden impairment? How is music actually perceived? Researchers at the University and ETH Zurich offer a fascinating insight. Guests: Lutz Jänke (Chair of Neuropsychology, University of Zurich), Christof Röösli (clinic for ear, nose, throat and facial surgery, University Hospital Zurich), Robert Riener (Sensory-Motor Systems Lab, ETH Zurich) Presented by Eye On Science, Life Science Zurich, University of Zurich, ETH Zürich
