Torrey Loucks - Speech and Hearing Science, UIUC

Torrey Loucks, PhD is an assistant professor in the Department of Speech and Hearing Science at the University of Illinois. His long-term research focus concerns how the human nervous system develops a capacity for fluent speech production, but which fails to develop in the disorder of stuttering. He uses neuroimaging and sensorimotor integrations paradigms to study these brain-articulatory interactions in typical speakers and persons who stutter. His most recent research is aimed at understanding how fine sensorimotor interactions allow for error correction during ongoing speech production.
