The ISRL at UBC was established in 2000 through a New Opportunities infrastructure grant from the Canadian Foundation for Innovation<\/a> (CFI) to Bryan Gick<\/a> (Dept. of Linguistics<\/a>), with collaborators in Neuroscience<\/a>, Audiology & Speech Sciences<\/a>, Linguistics<\/a>,  Psychology<\/a>, and Electrical & Computer Engineering<\/a>. The goal of the original proposal, created in collaboration with Guy Carden and Douglas Pulleyblank, was \u201cto establish a centre for interdisciplinary research in the speech-related fields at UBC.\u201d Since then, research conducted at the lab has been supported by grants from NSERC<\/a>, SSHRC<\/a>, and other federal research-funding agencies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Stores Road Annex<\/strong> is the oldest academic building of the UBC Point Grey Campus. The Building was built along Main Mall from 1918-1919. It was one of the campus original buildings from the Faculty of Agriculture. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Through the 1920s, it was used as a classroom building of the Agriculture Department at Point Grey, although the main campus was in downtown at that time. Various agricultural training courses were offered as a continuation education to soldiers and their families after World War I.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In 1960s, the building as shown here has been relocated to Stores Road, and hence, the name Stores Road Annex. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Linguistics Department claimed the building in early 2000s and since then it has been the centre of most of the Linguistics Department’s experimental work done on campus<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
