The NEURAL Research Lab is located within Indiana University Bloomington's Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences Department, and is directed by Dr. Brielle C. Stark. It was founded in 2018, and its main purpose is to characterize language and its neural underpinnings in individuals with neurogenic communication disorders, especially aphasia. The lab is primarily interested in spoken language, especially discourse (connected speech: language beyond a single word/clause and used for a specific purpose), and its intersection with multimodal communicative channels (especially gesture) and internal language/lived experience (inner speech).
