Welcome to the Hearing, Speech, and Cognition (HeSp-Cog) Laboratory!

The HeSp-Cog Lab is part of the School of Communication Science and Disorders at Florida State University

We conduct research to:

  • Understand relationships between age-related hearing loss/ auditory processing deficits and cognitive decline (risk of Dementia).
  • Understand the relationship between tinnitus and cognition.
  • Develop safe and effective methods for early identification of hearing-associated cognitive decline.
