Biography
Wiebke Middelberg received her B.Eng. degree in Engineering Physics in 2019 and her M.Sc. degree in Engineering Physics with a specialization in Acoustics in 2021, both at the Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg. Since September 2021 she is pursuing a Dr.-Ing. degree in the Signal Processing Division at the Carl von Ossietzky University. At the DAGA 2022, she received the "DEGA Study Award" for her Master Thesis about GSC-based noise and interfer reduction in acoustic sensor networks. Furthermore, she won the third place of the »ARD/ZDF Förderpreis Frauen und Medientechnologie 2022« for her Master Thesis.
