Short presentation

Research
I work with audiology and hearing spoken language, and I’m increasingly aware of the dovetail between perception and production.  Some of my recent work involves:

• Speech perception by cochlear implant listeners
• Lateralized Readiness Potential as a clinical indicator of functional hearing loss
• Mu-rhythms and rhythmic priming of speech perception
• Role of attention in the perception of speech contrasts
• Vowel length perception

I’m originally from Australia and, apart from a few stints in London and Sydney, have been in Scandinavia for two+ decades.

Teaching
I'm affiliated with the combined Speech Pathology and Audiology program. In this role I'm heavily involved in convening the audiology side of things.
