Profile

Robert Mannell has had a broad university education (see above). Before becoming an academic (in 1987 at Macquarie) he worked professionally as a hospital biochemist, an analytical chemist (drug detection in the racing industry) and a computer programmer (database programming and speech signal processing). His honours research was on the evaluation of speech synthesisers and his PhD research examined auditory processing of speech using a combination of computer modelling and human perceptual research. Dr Mannell currently carries out research in the areas of phonetics and phonology, speech synthesis, auditory processing of speech, speech perception, speech acoustics and the evaluation of speech technology. Dr Mannell has been the recipient of numerous research grants and industrial contracts and currently leads a project in the nationally funded Hearing Cooperative Research Centre.

Dr Mannell is heavily involved in the Department's teaching program. He co-convenes (with Felicity Cox) two degrees, the Bachelor of Speech and Hearing Sciences and the Master of Science in Speech and Language Processing. He also convenes (or co-convenes with other colleagues) several units in the fields of phonetics and phonology, speech acoustics, speech physiology, speech technology, auditory physiology and psychoacoustics. Dr Mannell has been the recipient of several teaching development grants.
