Project Summary The goal of this K25 Mentored Quantitative Research Career Development Award is to enable the candidate to develop expertise in the areas of acoustics and aeroacoustics of speech, in the context of a research plan that investigates sound source mechanisms that affect speech disorders due to velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI). The professional development plan involves a structured curriculum of coursework, workshops, seminars, and individual study under the supervision of a mentorship and advisory team. The mentorship committee includes multidisciplinary team of established researchers with expertise in acoustic modeling of speech and speech disorders, aerodynamics of speech, aeroacoustics, medical imaging techniques, and clinical management of VPI. The research plan involves specific aims that have been designed to address the gap in knowledge for the lack of correlation between the size of the velopharyngeal opening with VPI and the severity of speech distortion. The research will be guided by two hypotheses: 1) sound characteristics due to airflow will decrease as the size of the velopharyngeal opening is increased; 2) sound characteristics due to resonance will increase as the size of the velopharyngeal opening is increased. The training and research experience provided by this award will enable the candidate to successfully bear as an independent researcher in the clinical areas of VPI and craniofacial anomalies.

项目摘要 这个K25指导定量研究职业发展奖的目标是使候选人能够 发展语音声学和航空声学领域的专业知识，在研究计划的背景下， 研究了影响由于腭咽功能不全（VPI）引起的言语障碍的声源机制。 专业发展计划包括一个结构化的课程，包括课程作业、讲习班、研讨会和 在导师和咨询团队的监督下进行个人学习。指导委员会包括 多学科的研究团队，在语音和语音的声学建模方面具有专业知识 疾病，语言的空气动力学，航空声学，医学成像技术和临床管理， VPI。该研究计划涉及具体目标，旨在解决知识上的差距， 腭咽开口的大小与VPI和言语严重程度之间缺乏相关性 畸变本研究将以两个假设为指导：1）由于气流的声音特性会降低 随着咽喉开口的尺寸增加; 2）由于共振的声音特性将增加 因为咽喉开口的尺寸增大。这所提供的培训和研究经验 奖项将使候选人能够成功地承担作为一个独立的研究人员在临床领域的VPI 和颅面畸形
