Vikram Dayalu, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Interim Dean, School of Health and Medical Sciences and Associate Professor
Department of Speech-Language Pathology
I have a Bachelor of Science degree and a Master of Science degree in Speech Pathology and Audiology and a Ph.D. in Communication Disorders. I oversee the Fluent and Dysfluent Speech Laboratory. Current research projects include the study of sensory modalities and its influence on the speech production in both normal and stuttering population and the study of the speech perception-production interactions from an action observation-execution paradigm. My clinical interests are in the areas of stuttering and voice disorders, and I teach courses in fluency disorders and speech science.
