This study tests whether Apple AirPods can help adults with mild-to-moderate hearing loss understand speech in noisy places. Twenty-four participants will compare AirPods, hearing aids, and wireless microphones in a single lab session. Researchers will measure how well people hea…

This study tests whether a safe, noninvasive brain stimulation technique called HD-tDCS can reduce stuttering symptoms like repetitions and blocks. Fifty adults who stutter will receive a single session of stimulation and complete speaking tasks before and after. The goal is to s…

This study tests a device that stimulates the vagus nerve while patients undergo prolonged exposure therapy for PTSD. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and more effective than therapy alone. Twenty adults with chronic PTSD who haven't improved with standard treatments…
