Stefanie Shattuck-Hufnagel | Principal Research Scientist

Dr. Stefanie Shattuck-Hufnagel is a principal investigator in the Research Laboratory of Electronics (RLE) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). She received her B.A. from Wellesley College in 1965 and her Ph.D. in psychology from MIT in 1975. She was Assistant Professor of Psychology at Cornell University from 1974 to 1979 before joining RLE in 1980.

Dr. Shattuck-Hufnagel investigates the cognitive structures and processes involved in speech production planning, particularly at the level of speech sound sequencing. Her work with speech error patterns and with the acoustic analyses of prosody has implications for cognitive models of speech production and for phonological theory, as well as applications in speech recognition and synthesis.
