auditory processing and communication skills in deaf, hard-of-hearing and typically hearing children and adolescents; learning difficulties, neurodevelopmental disorders, and psychiatric disorders in higher education
I am a University Lecturer in the Research Unit of Logopedics at the University of Oulu, Finland. I am working currently on research focusing on the development of speech perception and production, language, social communication, reading and writing in deaf, hard-of-hearing and typically hearing children. I also study topics related to supporting learning among students with learning difficulties, neurodevelopmental difficulties, or mental health challenges. I work part-time as a speech and language therapist in a private practice. You can find me also on Bluesky: @krisuli.bsky.social
