Electrophysiological Approaches to Understanding Functional Organization of Speech in the Brain
#1R01DC018579 - $2,756,787.00 (12/01/2020 - 11/30/2025)
- Grant funding from National Institutes of Health
- The proposed study will investigate the organization of speech sound representations in the developing brain from childhood to adolescence. In addition to its overall organization for speech, we will determine how the brain is able to segment continuous speech sounds in different contexts, including when speech is self- generated or occurs in the presence of noise or other competing information. Understanding such processes will inform developmental milestones for brain development, and could lead to brain-based treatments of language disorders delayed language learning and dyslexia.
