SaND<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Project Overview<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Speech and Neurological Disease (SaND) research group investigates the effects of neurological disease (such as Alzheimer’s disease) on speech motor control. The SaND group was founded by PhD Candidate Arian Shamei<\/a>, who currently leads its research agenda under the supervision of Dr. Bryan Gick<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SaND Group investigates acoustic features that discriminate neurological disease, and the use of machine learning models for clinical detection <\/p>\n\n\n\n
