We are a lab in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences here at UW and we're looking for adults to participate in some research studies.

In general, our lab recruits adults who stutter and adults who do NOT stutter for a variety of experiments in which you'll be compensated $20/hr. We can reimburse for street parking and we will provide you with a free hearing screening as part of the experiment.

Most of our studies require simply sitting in front of a microphone and reading words or sentences off a screen. Some studies involve measuring your brain activity while you wear an electrode cap (just like a swim cap). We have various safety protocols in place to minimize the spread of COVID-19.

If you are interested, or have any questions at all, please email us at [email protected]. We will send you an eligibility questionnaire to determine if you qualify.

Thank you!
