My main research interests lie in forensic speech science, sociophonetics, acoustic phonetics, Bayesian statistics and the evaluation of voice evidence. My work in sampling variability in forensic voice comparison contributes to the on-going discussion of validity and reliability in the forensic evidence comparison. I argue that forensic experts should focus on measuring and minimising uncertainty, not maximising discriminability. I also maintain active research interest in articulatory phonetics and disordered speech. I use Electromagnetic articulography (EMA) and ultrasound tongue imaging (UTI) investigating the interpretability of acoustic signals from an articulatory perspective.
