Biography
Françoise Brosseau-Lapré is a certified speech-language pathologist and an Associate Professor of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, with a courtesy appointment at the Indiana University School of Medicine. Prior to completing her PhD, Dr. Brosseau-Lapré practiced at the Montreal Children’s Hospital with bilingual and multilingual children for several years. Dr. Brosseau-Lapré’s research focuses on speech development and disorders in preschoolers and school-age children. The aim of her research program is to identify underlying impairments responsible for the speech production difficulties of children with speech sound disorders. She is specifically interested in identifying predictors of persistent speech errors and later literacy difficulties in children with speech sound disorders, with or without language disorder. The ultimate goal of her work is to develop more effective intervention strategies for children with speech sound disorders.
