In this episode of “This Is Purdue,” we’re talking to Preeti Sivasankar, Purdue University’s vice president for research innovation and professor in the Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences.

Societal transformation begins with research, and no one knows this better than Preeti. Since joining Purdue’s faculty 19 years ago, she has contributed to making the department a leader in the field. Purdue is now home to the No. 2 speech-language pathology graduate program and No. 8 audiology graduate program in the country according to U.S. News & World Report. And as the newly appointed vice president for research innovation, she helps lead other Boilermaker researchers as their work continues to impact the world.

In this second episode of our 2024 Purdue Research Series, you will:

• Learn more about Preeti’s research in voice disorders, what causes them and how we can prevent vocal strain.
• Explore how Purdue’s Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, part of the College of Health and Human Sciences, provides students and faculty with unique research opportunities and experiences.
