Allison Hilger, PhD, CCC-SLP is the Principal Investigator of the COÌýMotor Speech Lab. She started at CU in 2020 after graduating with her PhD from Northwestern University. Allison's research interests include auditory feedback control in speech, phrasal prosody in dysarthria, and the acoustics of speech for aerosol generation. In her free time, Allison enjoys hiking with her dog, Bader, and her husband, Daniel, in the many trails around Boulder, CO. She also enjoys reading, skiing, and weightlifting.Ìý
