Recent work is bearing fruit! I will be presenting a poster at ASA in New Orleans, a podium talk at CIAP in July, made it to financial review for my LRP app this year, have a JASA paper back freshly from review, and UMN published an article on my F32!

When a person with a cochlear implant expends extra effort to fill in a missing word using context, it’s virtually impossible to detect that extra effort just by listening to their voice, according to @matt_with_ears & Katherine H. Teece in new #OA study

With aims to graduate with my PhD and hopefully begin a post-doc in 2026 I did a bit of work my website today! Besides CV updates and some reorganization, I also included some pics of Deadbolt on my About page. Preview image here!

For anyone who did not catch my morning poster today at ASA, the full poster document is now available on ResearchGate at the link provided below! It was great talking with so many people about the study! 😁 https://t.co/c9V7pq4JND

People who use cochlear implants are at risk for losing perception of prosody (voice melody, tone, inflection). We NEED to focus(!) on this ability to give folks the hearing they want
Come learn from @HarleyJWheeler who is presenting his work at the #ASA186 in Ottawa (Monday AM)

The Editor's Award for Outstanding Publication in Ear and Hearing was awarded to Dr. Matt Fitzgerald and colleagues at our awards ceremony yesterday for their Ear and Hearing paper on rethinking how we tests speech recognition clinically.

1am banana bread and my classroom for teaching phonetics this spring. 🍌 🍞

@lintoinette @StevenGianakas right? after 3 applications and a year and a half, I've got to actually do it now. 😮‍💨

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

With my Notice of Award received, I am elated to share that my NIH F32 grant on prosody perception by cochlear implant listeners has been funded! 🥳🥳🥳

It was a heck of a road persevering to get this, and I am incredibly grateful to everyone that has supported me along the way!

Not the reversed inner ear art! 🥴

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

Submitted my 3rd attempt for the NIH F32 and am now off with friends to enjoy a trip nearly a year in the making-- picture taken at Hoover Dam!

If you're interested in how clinical audiologists can be involved in research, I highly recommend checking out RAISN-- they really helped widen my view while I did a T-35 at Boys Town!

[ARO @AROMWM]

The ARO Education Committee would like to share an upcoming Q&A Session held by RAISN. Tune in if you are interested in learning more about Research Audiology Not sure what to ask? Watch the ARO Coffee Hour w/ RAISN recording to prepare! @RAISNetwork https://t.co/64YNcIt375

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

Posters by myself, Steven Gianakas, Michael Smith, and Matt Winn.

Here's a web link with the full poster and a bit more on some interpretation of the ongoing work!

It's a great time at CIAP 2023 catching up with friends. The Listen Lab's big day is Wednesday-- you can catch all our posters and a talk by Justin Fleming. I'll be presenting a poster with updates on prosodic focus perception by cochlear implant listeners! Here's a glimpse!

First blooms on my hoya carnosa 'compacta' after years of growth from a cutting!

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

I've heard conversations about this for as long as I've been in the field, and I'm sure it goes back further. But as long as SOME can afford to go underpaid and not be fighting or voicing against it, I'm afraid there won't be strong enough of a push to resolve the issue.

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

Starting my day with blood aboil after a conversation about how clinical sites for audiology students don't pay (and those that do are undercompensating). It's just further tendrils of university classism and the sexist, outdated notion that someone else will be paying bills.

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

Got after it before today's rain for the first time after 2 years. Thanks for the trail suggestion, @StevenGianakas ! 😎 🚲

[Harley Wheeler @HarleyJWheeler]

Had great conversations on the benefits of remote training for new over-the-counter hearing aid users at the ASA meeting! Great to share what Peggy Nelson, Erin O'Neill, and myself have been up to!

Also great prosody talks at the joint P&P / SC session on Thursday! 😃

I was going for "end of semester", but Gmail's attempt at auto-complete is being reeeeeal dramatic today.
