Biography
Maude is an Assistant Professor of Speech-Language Pathology at the School of Rehabilitation Sciences at Université Laval and a researcher at the Interdisciplinary Research Center in Rehabilitation and Social Integration (Cirris) and the CHU de Québec–Université Laval Research Center. She earned her PhD in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences from the Medical University of South Carolina in 2019 and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Voice and Motor Learning Lab at the University of Delaware in 2021. Her research focuses on the physiology of voice production and the rehabilitation of voice disorders. She is particularly interested in the biomechanical and sensorimotor interactions between voice and breathing, and how these are affected by states such as fear, anxiety, fatigue, and pain. The long-term goal of her research program is to better understand how these interactions shape both healthy and pathological voice production, and how they should be addressed to improve voice therapy outcomes.
