Confirmation of candidature, Nicole Free, "The impact of vocal load and voice therapy on benign vocal fold lesions", 14 March

All staff and students are invited to Nicole Free's confirmation of candidature.

14 March, 4.30pm, Office of Professor Julian Smith, Head of Department of Surgery, School of Clinical Sciences at Monash Health, Level 5, Block E, Monash Medical Centre


Synopsis: Once nodules, a polyp or a cyst are established in the vocal folds, do we have the potential to reverse or eliminate them through voice therapy or vocal load reduction? This research investigates how these phonotraumatic vocal fold lesions change over time, and how they respond to vocal load and targeted voice exercise. 

Supervisors: Dr Debra Phyland, Prof Julian Smith and A/Prof Joseph Stemple (University of Kentucky)
