Molly Babel

Principal Investigator


I am an Associate Professor of Linguistics at the University of British Columbia. As director of the Speech in Context Lab, my research focuses on spoken communication from a multidisciplinary perspective. My work on speech perception, processing, and production considers the larger context of spoken language use, which often involves examining social and cognitive elements of language and human behaviour. I am a member of the Royal Society of Canada’s College of New Scholars, Artists, and Scientists.
