Abstract
Northwestern University has a vibrant and interdisciplinary community of acousticians. Of the 13 ASA technical areas, 3 have strong representation at Northwestern: Speech Communication, Psychological and Physiological Acoustics, and Musical Acoustics. Sound-related work is conducted across a wide range of departments including Linguistics (in the Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences), Communication Sciences & Disorders, and Radio/Television/Film (both in the School of Communication), Electrical Engineering & Computer Science (in the McCormick School of Engineering), Music Theory & Cognition (in the Bienen School of Music), and Otolaryngology (in the Feinberg School of Medicine). In addition, The Knowles Hearing Center involves researchers and labs across the university dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of hearing disorders. Acoustics research topics across the university include speech perception and production across the lifespan and across languages, dialects and socio-indexical properties of speech; sound art and design; social and cultural history of the sonic world; machine processing of music; musical communication; auditory perceptual learning; auditory aspects of conditions such as concussion, HIV, and autism; neurophysiology of hearing; and the cellular, molecular, and genetic bases of hearing function. We invite you to visit our poster to learn more about the “sonic boom” at Northwestern University!
