UW Vocal Function Lab
Share
Research in the Vocal Function Laboratory focuses on two main areas of inquiry: 1) auditory-perceptual evaluation of voice disorders, including sources of variability related to these measures; and 2) everyday communication outcomes in a number of clinical populations. These studies have involved collaborations with colleagues in Speech and Hearing Sciences, Rehabilitation Medicine, and Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at the University of Washington and other institutions.

Congratulations to our PI, Dr. Tanya Eadie, on receiving the 6th Annual Dysphonia International Research Award at the 53rd Annual Symposium: Care of the Professional Voice in Philadelphia. The award was based on research entitled "Patient-perceived vocal effort in adductor laryngeal dystonia (ADLD): Order of evaluation tasks matters", that was presented at the Annual Symposium on June 1st, 2024. Thanks to our co-authors - Dr. Cara Sauder, Dr. Mara Kapsner-Smith, Dr. Katherine Marks, Dr. Tanya Meyer, Emily Wilson, and Dr. Cara Stepp - and especially all of our participants with adductor laryngeal dystonia for their time and contributions towards this work.
We are grateful to Dysphonia International and the The Voice Foundation for their support.
