Nicole Etter
Education:
- Dr. Etter completed her PhD in Rehabilitation Sciences from the University of Kentucky and a post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Sydney. Dr. Etter’s work focuses on the use of somatosensory information (feelings of touch and relative locations of body parts) to carefully control production of speech. The overarching theme of this clinical research is to help adults with and without neurogenic speech disorders achieve clear, oral communication by developing new assessment and therapeutic interventions.
