Dr Noriko Yamane is an expert in speech production and perception based at Hiroshima University in Japan. Yamane is leading a team which is carrying out research to elucidate the precise mechanisms of the tongue and speechgestures that are required to learn English as a second language. Yamane's goal is to help people who do not respond well to traditional approaches to improving articulation. Her long-term goal is to work with engineers and develop an app available for speakers, communities of the deaf and/or atypical speech, to help them to improve their communication.
