AIR’s mission is to improve the health and quality of life of people and caregivers with voice, cough, and swallowing disorders through clinical innovation, scientific discovery, multidisciplinary collaborations, and educational outreach. From a basic science perspective, we aim to identify mechanisms of voice, cough, and swallowing function in both disordered and non-disordered adults to better inform clinical diagnostics and treatment development. From an applied clinical science perspective, we aim to develop robust and impactful assessments and treatment methods for voice, cough, and swallowing disorders.
As part of our applied clinical scientific endeavors, we seek community-dwelling adults with and without voice, cough, and swallowing disorders to engage in our clinically-oriented research. If you are a patient, caregiver, or adult in the New York City or tri-state area interested in learning more about free and/or paid research opportunities at The AIR Lab, please fill out the form using the following link: AIR Contact Form
