Heivet obtained a Bachelor of Biology at the University of Habana, where his honours project explored Auditory Steady State Responses (ASSR) measured in free sound field conditions typical of hearing individuals and cochlear implant users. He earned a Master’s in Systems Physiology, working as a research associate in the Speech Hearing Department at the Neuroscience Cuban Centre (CNEURO), where he led projects aimed at improving objective measures to assess hearing function in newborns and pediatric cochlear implant candidates. His research at Macquarie University focuses on understanding cortical and subcortical structures and efferent pathways, referred to as 'listening loops,' that contribute to hearing and speech perception. His PhD examined how these 'listening loops' are recruited depending on the speech signal encountered, and he has continued his research postdoctorally, investigating how the listening brain adapts and learns from the statistics of auditory signals.
