Lori Leibold directs the Center for Hearing Research at the Boys Town Na- tional Research Hospital, Omaha, NE. She received her BSc in biology from McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada, her MSc in audiology from the University of Western Ontario, Lon-
don, ON, Canada, and her PhD in hearing science from the University of Washington, Seattle. Her research focuses on auditory development, with a particular interest in under- standing how infants and children learn to hear and process target sounds such as speech in the presence of competing background sounds.
Emily Buss is a professor at the Uni- versity of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, where she serves as chief of auditory re- search. She received a BA from Swarth- more College, Swarthmore, PA, and a PhD in psychoacoustics from the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia.
Her research interests include auditory development, the ef- fects of advanced age and hearing loss, auditory prostheses, speech perception, and normative psychoacoustics.
Lauren Calandruccio is an associate professor in the Department of Psycho- logical Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH. She received a BA in speech and hearing science and an MA in audiology from Indiana Uni- versity, Bloomington. After working as a
pediatric audiologist, she attended Syracuse University, Syra- cuse, NY, where she earned her PhD in hearing science. Her research focuses on speech perception, with a focus on noisy or degraded auditory environments, bilingual speech percep- tion, and improving clinical auditory assessment techniques.
