Brian Richburg
Lab Manager
Email: brichburg@mghihp.edu
Brian joined Dr. Green's lab in 2013. Prior to joining the team he supported numerous research efforts studying speech, language, and audio perception at MIT and a small private research company. Read more on Brian Richburg.
Hannah Rowe, MA, CCC-SLP
Doctoral Researcher
Email: hrowe@mghihp.edu
Hannah Rowe is a doctoral student in the PhD in Rehabilitation Sciences at the MGH Institute. Her research focuses on investigating disordered speech in patients with ALS. She is looking specifically at comparing perceptual ratings from clinical tests to physiological measurements in order to develop more valid and reliable assessment tools for motor-impaired populations.
