Current Studies

Speech Processing VR Studies

We have multiple ongoing VR studies that investigate multisensory integration and attention in neurodiverse populations.

Our speech processing VR studies are recruiting participants who:

  • Are ages 7-12
  • Have a formal diagnosis of ADHD, autism, fetal alcohol syndrome disorder, or are neurotypical
  • Have an average or above average IQ and can converse fluently
  • Have no history of minor head injury or seizures

To participate or learn more about the speech processing VR study, please fill out our prescreening survey (https://redcap.link/SpectrumBrainLab) or contact us (SpectrumBrainLab@urmc.rochester.edu) and a member of our study team will reach out to you.

Self-Advocate Sensory Processing Focus Group Study

This is an ongoing research study in which we are interested in learning more about a diverse range of sensory processing experiences so that we can tailor our research to best serve the communities we support.

Our self-advocate sensory processing focus groups are recruiting participants who:

  • Are 18+
  • Identify as having ADHD, autism, a developmental disability, or a learning disability
  • Are comfortable participating in a low-pressure group discussion

To participate or learn more about the self-advocate focus groups, please fill out our prescreening survey (https://redcap.link/SBL-Focus-Groups) or contact us (SpectrumBrainLab@urmc.rochester.edu) and a member of our study team will reach out to you.
