Andrew Oxenham Awarded Prestigious Silver Medal from the Acoustical Society of America
We are excited to announce that Andrew Oxenham, faculty, has been awarded a Silver Medal in Psychological and Physiological Acoustics from the Acoustical Society of America.
This medal is a prestigious honor and only the 12th to be awarded in this field since its inception in 1977; Neal Viemeister, emeritus professor of psychology, was honored with the award in 2001. Oxenham received this medal for his “contributions to understanding the perception of pitch, auditory stream formation, context effects, and masking,” and was formally recognized at the Spring 2025 Plenary Session on May 21 in New Orleans.
Andrew Oxenham, PhD, is a Distinguished McKnight University Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Minnesota, the director of the Auditory Perception and Cognition Lab and the executive director of the Center for Applied & Translational Sensory Science.
