Overall Research Project Description We will recruit younger to older adults to investigate how our brains process speech sounds as we age.

We will also have participants undergo testing of brain responses, in which sensors will be placed on their heads to record brain waves specific to hearing.
Research Tasks The RA will be responsible for subject recruitment, data collection and organization, and uploading data to the database. They may also be involved in some data analysis.

Mentoring Philosophy My lab is a safe environment in which students feel it is acceptable to fail and learn from their mistakes. We give students ownership of their work and promote accountability. We encourage students to ask questions and hope to see them work independently and take risks.
