Nineteen Doctoral Candidates (DCs) have taken up their positions at universities, research institutes, and industry partners in 12 countries. Over the next four years, they will investigate how humans perceive and produce voices, and how this knowledge can power safer, fairer, and more natural voice technologies.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>The program combines advanced methodological training with hands-on research and intersectoral placements. Early activities include onboarding, literature reviews, and local lab rotations. From 2026, 19 DCs will conduct coordinated experiments and secondments across partner sites, with shared datasets and open resources released along the way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"143\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2-1024x143.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2-1024x143.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2-300x42.png 300w, https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2-768x107.png 768w, https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2-600x84.png 600w, https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2-228x32.png 228w, https:\/\/www.vocs.eu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/image-2.png 1493w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);max-width:1000px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-3xl, 6.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-3xl, 6.5rem);grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c{background-image:url('http:\/\/vocseun.cluster028.hosting.ovh.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/consortium-101123-scaled.jpg');background-size:cover;background-position:center center;background-attachment:scroll;background-repeat:no-repeat;}.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.75;background-color:var(--global-palette4, #2D3748);}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id1513_72cf81-6c alignfull has-black-background-color kt-row-has-bg wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-layout-overlay kt-row-overlay-normal\"><\/div><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-1-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column1513_e062a2-4f > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column1513_e062a2-4f > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column1513_e062a2-4f > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column1513_e062a2-4f{position:relative;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column1513_e062a2-4f inner-column-1\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\"><style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80\"]{margin-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);text-align:center;font-size:var(--global-kb-font-size-lg, 2rem);line-height:1.2;font-style:normal;color:var(--global-palette9, #ffffff);}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading has-theme-palette-9-color has-text-color\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading1513_fa4f57-80\"><strong>\u201c<\/strong>VoCS aims to contribute not only to scientific knowledge but also to the<strong> exponential growth of the voice technology industry <\/strong>by creating a <strong>network of skilled experts <\/strong>shaping the future of voice technology in Europe.\u201d<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our 19 doctoral candidates are now in posts across 12 countries, advancing the science and technology of the human voice.
