Research:
Dr. Voss's research focuses on sound transmission in normal and diseased ears. Her work has applications in audiometric instrumentation, surgical auditory implants, and aids for the hearing impaired.

Career Highlights:
Voss received her BS in Engineering from Brown University (1991), where she worked on computer speech recognition. At MIT she received her MS (1995), in electrical engineering and computer science and her PhD (1998), in speech and hearing sciences from the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology. Her doctoral work examined the auditory effects of eardrum perforations. She continued at MIT as a post-doctoral associate within the Research Laboratory of Electronics, where she identified inaccuracies within widely used audiometric testing procedures and taught at MIT in the department of electrical engineering and computer science and the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology. Voss currently holds an appointment at the Harvard Medical School and continues to collaborate with colleagues at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.

Voss joined the faculty of the Picker Engineering Program at Smith College in January 2001. She has taught several subjects, including Introduction to Engineering, Circuit Theory, Signals and Systems, Neuroengineering, and Digital Signal Processing. Additionally, she has advised several student research projects and senior honors theses.

Dr. Voss is editor-at-large for Ear and Hearing.
