Aural Rehabilitation Lab

About Us

Our Mission

Our mission in the Aural Rehabilitation Lab is to describe, understand, and facilitate effective communication in people relying on listening and spoken language. In order to meet this goal, we conduct research with people of all ages—from infancy to adulthood—and with all levels of hearing.

Who We Are

We are individuals with a variety of specialized training from cognitive science to audiology to deaf education to engineering to speech-language pathology. However we all share the same desire. We want to ensure that ALL human beings have the opportunity to communicate effectively with those around them.
