Team publishes article on cochlear implants
Joseph Bochner, professor at NTID; Vincent Samar, recently retired professor from NTID; Matt Huenerfauth, dean, Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences; and Emily Prud'hommeaux, Boston College, published “Phoneme Categorization in Prelingually Deaf Adult Cochlear Implant Users” in the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. Their research shows that the age at which a prelingually deaf child receives a cochlear implant affects their eventual development of speech sound categories in adulthood.
