Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 14/04/2025We're happy to have Lyle Tadmor join our lab! In her PhD work, Lyle investigates #articulatory and #respiratory coordination, to gain insight into #aging and #Parkinson's Disease. She is supervised by Michael Barbe (@uniklinikkoeln.bsky.social, neurology) and Doris Mücke (@unicologne.bsky.social). 040
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 14/04/2025Welcome to the lab, Erik Morris! Supervised by Doris Mücke in Cologne (@unicologne.bsky.social) and Ioana Chitoran and Hi-Yon Yoo in Paris (@upcite.bsky.social), Erik is working on #dialect exposure and speaker variability in L2 acquisition, investigating segmental and prosodic features of #Greek. 030
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 14/04/2025We're thrilled to welcome two new PhD students to our #SpeeDyLab group! 🥳 Lyle Tadmor and Erik Morris were awarded scholarships by the a.r.t.e.s. Graduate School of the Humanities in Cologne, and have started to work on their projects in April. Great to have you on board! 030
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 05/02/2025The Offermann-Hergarten Foundation has awarded the 2024 Offermann-Hergarten Prize to @tabeathies.bsky.social and @aviadalbert.bsky.social for their dissertations honoring outstanding young researchers at the University of Cologne's Faculty of Arts and Humanities. Congrats! 🎉 060
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 27/01/2025Recently, Justine Mertz presented her work on sign language kinematics at #TISLR15 in Addis-Abeba, Ethiopia. She even won the Early Career Researcher (ECR) award from the Sign Language Linguistics Society #SLLS! 🥳 030
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 13/12/2024Cheers to 10 incredible years of collaboration, discovery, and growth! 🎉 In October, we celebrated the 10th anniversary of our research network "Brain Modulation and Speech Motor Control". We’re proud of how far we’ve come! #10YearsStrong #ResearchCommunity #anniversary 050
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Yesterday, Justine Mertz was invited to present her work on sign language coarticulation in the Phonology Colloquium at Goethe Universität Frankfurt. She was super excited to present the new results obtained with Lena Pagel, Doris Mücke and Giusy Turco, and they shared her enthusiasm! 🤗 061
Speech Dynamics Lab @speedy-lab.bsky.social · 03/09/2024🚨 New Paper Alert! 🚨 Lena Pagel, Simon Roessig and Doris Mücke just published a paper in #LabPhon on articulatory signatures of prosodic prominence in habitual and loud speech.
