This Handbook, the first specifically dedicated to the laboratory phonology approach, builds on the foundation of knowledge amassed in linguistics, speech research and allied disciplines. With the varied interdisciplinary contributions collected, the Handbook advances work in this vibrant field.

Abigail C. Cohn is Professor of Linguistics at Cornell University. Her research addresses the relationship between phonology and phonetics and is informed by laboratory phonology approaches. Her published work includes articles in Phonology and a number of edited volumes.
Cécile Fougeron is Research Scientist in experimental phonetics at CNRS/University of Paris 3. Her research interests include the segmental manifestation of prosodic organization and the phonetic characteristics of speech disorders. Her published work includes articles in Journal of Phonetics and Journal of the Acoustical Society of America.
Marie K. Huffman is Associate Professor of Linguistics, at State University of New York, Stony Brook. Her research focusses on the acoustic analysis of speech, especially its temporal structure. Her published work includes articles in Journal of Phonetics and Speech Communication.
