Dr. Yunjung Kim is a professor in the School of Communication Science and Disorders and directs the FSU Motor Speech Laboratory. Her primary research interests lie in the transformation from a talker’s articulatory behavior to listeners’ reaction. Specifically, her work has focused on identifying acoustic and articulatory characteristics of speech produced by people with neurologic conditions that negatively impact their speech intelligibility. For this, she uses a wide methodological toolkit including acoustic analysis software, electromagnetic articulography (EMA), and ultrasound imaging. Recent work in the lab has focused on developing speech rehabilitation models for linguistically and culturally minor groups (e.g., foreign born immigrants) in international, multidisciplinary collaboration with experts in rehabilitation psychology, business, computer engineering, and clinical care.
