Haskins Laboratories, located in New Haven, Connecticut, is a private,
non-profit research laboratory founded in 1935.
We have been continuously engaged in interdisciplinary basic research
for over fifty years, including pioneering work on the acoustics of speech,
the development of speech synthesis and its application to the study of
speech perception.
Currently, most of the Laboratories' research projects are focused on
problems in human communication and related topics, including speech perception
,
speech production, reading, linguistics, motor behavior, cognitive science,
nonlinear dynamics, medical imaging, functional MRI, etc.
