Bio

Dr. Naghibolhosseini is an Associate Professor in the department of Communicative Sciences and Disorders and the director of Analysis of Voice and Hearing Laboratory (AVAH Lab). The research in AVAH lab is focused on studying voice production, speech acoustics, and auditory sound transmission.

Dr. Naghibolhosseini is applying advanced image processing, machine learning, and statistical analysis techniques to investigate the vocal function and its underlying mechanisms. She also employs computational mathematics to perform biomechanical modeling of voice production and human auditory system. Her research goal is to determine the relationships between the vocal mechanisms, the generated speech sounds, and the perceived voice quality to improve voice assessment and treatment procedures.

She received her BS and MS in Biomedical and Electrical Engineering. She obtained her MPhil and PhD from the Department of Speech-Language-Hearing Sciences at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York.

She was the recipient of the 'Sigma Xi Young Investigator Award' by Sigma Xi The Scientific Research Honor Society in 2023, ''NIH NIDCD R21 Early Career Research Award' in 2022, 'ASHA Early Career Contributions in Research Award' in 2020, 'NIH NIDCD K01 Career Development Award' in 2019, Acoustical Society of America (ASA) 'Young Investigator Grant' in 2018 by Women in Acoustics, and the 2017 'Sataloff Award for Young Investigators', co-sponsored by Elsevier and The Voice Foundation.
