Dr. Teresa Pitts is a clinically trained and ASHA-certified speech language pathologist (CCC-SLP) licensed to practice in the state of Missouri.
Her laboratory focuses on the systems-level neurophysiology of the upper airway, and more specifically, the regulation of behaviors that are activated by upper airway afferents (swallow, breathing, laryngeal adductor reflex, etc.). Her long-term goal is to understand the mechanisms of upper airway dysfunction and develop novel therapies that have a high likelihood of clinical utility.
