Congratulations to Assistant Professor of Voice Dr. Shayna Isaacs for being named a recipient of the 2026 Collaborative Vocology Outreach Award!

This joint award from The Voice Foundation and the Pan-American Vocology Association is designed to support collaborative outreach projects that promote vocal health and development in communities.

This award will allow Dr. Isaacs and Dr. Mark Tempesta (Assistant Professor of Voice and Vocal Pedagogy at University of North Texas) to fund and conduct their study, which will use Respiratory Inductance Plethysmography via the RespTrack system to measure how gender-affirming chest compression garments affect breathing during singing. Upon the conclusion of this project, they will disseminate their research via free outreach presentations in the DFW metroplex and the RGV, through nonprofits specifically dedicated to serving the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
