PhD scholarship

Here is an advertisement for PhD scholarships, which could be linked to stuttering. Contact Robin Lickley, the younger Scottish generation's answer to Sean Connery. :-)

PhD positions funded by the European Commission under the Marie Curie Early Stage Research Training (EST) scheme are available on the Edinburgh Speech Science and Technology (EdSST) project. This is an interdisciplinary training programme in speech science and technology featuring a strong interaction between the two disciplines. Two of the available topics are applications relevant to stuttering:

Speech recognition applications for stuttered speech Dialogue training for people who stutter

Alternative topics which fit within the remit of EdSST are possible.
