Laboratory Introduction

I am researching a disorder of “speech fluency” called stuttering. There are various people involved in my research, including those who are studying the thoughts and difficulties of people who stutter, and those who are working on the development of teaching and support methods for people who stutter. Generally speaking, the word “disability” tends to have a negative image, but there is not a single person around me who conducts research with a negative image of disability. I focused on “online job interviews,” which people with stuttering tend to find difficult, and conducted an experiment to explore a web conferencing system that would make speaking as easy as possible. Although it was difficult for me to pursue and create knowledge on my own that was not found in textbooks, I feel that I grew a lot as a person.

If you are interested in stuttering and other disabilities, please come and take a look at our laboratory. I am sure you will make new discoveries and encounter perspectives that you did not know before.
