WP2 report - 2

WP2 report (D2.1, M24 & M52) will synthetise results on multimodal fusion in CS (ESR5) and audio-visuosomatosensory interactions (ESR6) and evaluate the efficiency for improving their development in real-life environments of: cognitive tools for optimising cognitive resources in effortful listening (ESRs 7-9), of multimodal technologies for augmented reality (ESR10), of cognitive intervention (ESR9) and of information technologies (ESR10).

WP1 report - 1

D11 will compare the limiting contribution of peripheral factors for outcomes ESRs 12 the contribution of crossmodal plasticity with respect to bottomup mechanisms ESRs 34 and their individual variation Using an animal model will not only allow pinpointing the mechanistic explanation at the cellular level but also provide information by comparison with the human data on the contribution of language to the crossmodal reorganisations Each task group delivers a report and all task group members and WP coordinator will summarise these in a synthetic WP1 report M24 M42 Each ESR will gain a global WP1 perspective

Clinical guidance

WP3 report - 2

WP3 report (D3.1, M24 & M52) synthetises results about the development of visual (ESRs 11-12), spoken (ESRs 11-12-14-15) and written (ESR 13) abilities of children with HI.

WP1 report - 2

D1.1 will compare the limiting contribution of peripheral factors for outcomes (ESRs 1-2), the contribution of crossmodal plasticity with respect to bottom-up mechanisms (ESRs 3-4) and their individual variation. Using an animal model will not only allow pinpointing the mechanistic explanation at the cellular level, but also provide information – by comparison with the human data – on the contribution of language to the cross-modal reorganisations. Each task group delivers a report and all task group members and WP coordinator will summarise these in a synthetic WP1 report (M24 & M52). Each ESR will gain a global WP1 perspective.
