About me

Hola!

I am Sergio de las Heras, doctoral researcher in the Technical Psychoacoustics group of the Aalto Acoustics Lab in Helsinki, Finland.

Education

I began my academic journey in Madrid, where I studied my BSc in Telecommunication Technologies Engineering at UC3M. During this time, I completed my music education in clarinet at CIEM FMT. I also participated in a semester-long exchange as part of my bachelors in USYD in Sydney, Australia.

After obtaining my degree, I moved to Germany where I joined RWTH Achen University to study the MSc in Electrical Engineering, Information Technology and Computer Engineering. There, I worked as a student assistant at the Institute of Hearing Technologies and Acoustics.

In early 2025, I moved to Helsinki and began my PhD in the Technical Psychoacoustics group at Aalto University.

Research Stays

I also have experience in industry, in the summer of 2024 I worked as Research Intern for Bang&Olufsen in Copenhagen, Denmark.

In the summer of 2025, I moved Cupertino, CA to work for Apple as an Audio Technology Intern.

What else?

The rest of my time I spend between reading, cycling, travelling, concerts and analog photography.
