Our research aims to better understand communication sciences and communication disorders. We work in a number of labs on MSU's campus and typically focus our research on speech and language processes as well as communication rehabilitation, among others. Our goal is to translate the knowledge we learn through research in practical, clinical breakthroughs.
In the Developmental Speech Lab, Bridget Walsh and her team are conducting studies using VR scenarios the researchers co-developed to explore how different simulated communication situations induce changes in speech and autonomic nervous system activity.
