Ingo Hertrich is Professor at the University of Tübingen, Germany, working as lecturer in phonetics and phonology at the Linguistics Department, and researcher in Neurobiology of Language at the Department of Neurology and Stroke and the Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research. He holds a PhD from the University of Munich in physical anthropology. He has published in the fields of acoustic phonetics, kinematic analysis of speech articulation, voice analysis, magnetoencephalography, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and transcranial magnetic stimulation. These studies considered various clinical aspects, but also included experimental work with healthy subjects in order to contribute to a functional‐anatomic model of speech and language processing in the brain.
Sarai Holbrook is an assistant professor in the School of Communication Sciences and Disorders in the College of Professional Studies at the University of Wisconsin‐Stevens Point. She holds the Certificate of Clinical Competence in speech‐language pathology from the American Speech‐Language‐Hearing Association.

Katherine C. Hustad, PhD, CCC‐SLP, is Professor of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. She is also an investigator at the Waisman Center. Professor Hustad’s research focuses on characterizing and enhancing speech, language, and communication development and outcomes in children with cerebral palsy. She also studies variables that influence speech intelligibility, with a special emphasis on augmentative/alternative communication interventions. A primary objective of her work is to generate a theoretically driven, data‐based longitudinal model of speech and language development in cerebral palsy that can be used to predict outcomes, develop and test interventions, and guide treatment decisions. Professor Hustad has a strong interest in bridging research with clinical practice. Her work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health, National Institute on Deafness and other Communication Disorders (USA) since 2003. She is a fellow of the American Speech, Language, and Hearing Association.
Adam Jacks, PhD, CCC‐SLP, is Associate Professor in the Division of Speech and Hearing Sciences, Department of Allied Health Sciences, University of North Carolina School of Medicine. He holds PhD and MA degrees from the University of Texas at Austin and a BA from Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. He teaches courses on speech science and motor speech disorders. His research focuses on understanding the link between neuropathology and behavioral manifestations of neurological speech disorders, investigating novel interventions for people with aphasia and apraxia of speech, and identifying factors associated with improved quality of life with aphasia.
Alan G. Kamhi is a Professor of Communication Sciences and Disorders at UNC‐Greensboro Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of North Carolina‐Greensboro. His early research focused on linguistic and cognitive abilities of children with specific language impairments (SLI) and mental handicaps. Later research focused on language‐learning disabilities, culminating in a book co‐edited with Hugh Catts, on language and reading disabilities. The third edition of this book was published in 2012. Recent articles have considered how to balance certainty and uncertainty in clinical practice, what SLPs need to know about auditory processing disorders, how to improve clinical practices for children with language and learning disorders, and how to assess and treat reading comprehension problems.
