Sofia Strömbergsson

Associate professor.

I completed my doctoral degree in 2014 at the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm (KTH), with a thesis focusing on perceptual 

Apart from my M.Sc degree in SLP (Lund, 2007), I also have a M.Sc degree in computational linguistics (Uppsala, 2000).

My research concerns children's speech and language disorders, with a specific focus on everyday consequences, for example, in terms of making oneself understood, and participating in communication. This has been the focus in the (now finished) project 

I also have a background and interest in speech technology, and particularly, how it can be used in speech-language therapy and research. In TEFLON, I collaborate with other Nordic colleagues in the development of a speech-training app, intended for use for learners of the Nordic languages, as well as for children with speech sound disorder (SSD).
