About The Authors

Robert M. Miller

Robert M. Miller, PhD, is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences at the University of Washington and holds adjunct faculty positions in Rehabilitation Medicine and Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery. He spent the first thirty-two years of his career in clinical practice for the Department of Veterans Affairs and was Chief of Audiology and Speech Pathology at VA Puget Sound Health Care System. He is a Fellow of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and holds board certification from the Academy of Neurologic Communication Disorders and Sciences. He received the 1997 Outstanding Clinical Achievement Award from the Washington Speech and Hearing Association and was honored with the Distinguished Career Award from the Department of Veterans Affairs. In 2005 he was awarded a Visiting Erskine Fellowship from the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand. His current areas of teaching are in neural basis for communication and swallowing and dysphagia.


Stephanie K. Daniels

Stephanie K. Daniels, PhD, CCC-SLP is a Professor in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Houston. She worked as a hospital-based speech pathologist for approximately 20 years prior to focusing on a research career. Her research, funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs, is focused on neurogenic dysphagia, primarily in stroke. She has pursued an understanding of the neural underpinnings of swallowing as well as evidence-based evaluation of neurogenic dysphagia. She is an ASHA Fellow and past President of the Dysphagia Research Society.


Deanna Britton

Deanna Britton is a Speech-Language Pathologist at the University of Washington Medical Center (UWMC) and doctoral candidate in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of Washington (Seattle). In her clinical practice, she sees patients with swallowing, speech, respiratory, language, and other communication problems that occur due to a variety of neurological and other pathological conditions. She is Board Certified in Neurogenic Communication Disorders in Adults by the Academy of Neurological Communication Disorders and Sciences (ANCDS). She has published and presented on topics related to dysphagia, augmentative and alternative communication, respiratory support for speech and swallowing, motor neuron disease, and spinal cord injury.


Maggie-Lee Huckabee

Maggie-Lee Huckabee, PhD practiced as a clinical speech language pathologist for 15 years before the frustration of never knowing 'the answers' led her to an academic career. She is now Founder and Director of the University of Canterbury Rose Centre for Stroke Recovery and Research and Professor in the Department of Communication Disorders in Christchurch, New Zealand. She still hasn’t found 'The Answers' but is trying, with research interests focusing on the complexities of behaviorally-driven neural adaptation and biomechanical change leading to swallowing recovery following neurological injury.

In her 15-year academic career, Maggie-Lee has co-authored three books, 14 book chapters and has published 80 peer reviewed scientific papers. A recent research programme has resulted in a reduction in pneumonia rates from 27 to 10%, with a subsequent savings in health care costs for the regional health board of over $1.4 million in one year. For this research, she was awarded one of the top research medals from the University of Canterbury: The Innovation Medal. She is well known as a clinical teacher and is an invited speaker by health systems worldwide to provide clinical training, particularly in rehabilitation practices.


Harrison N. Jones

Dr. Jones, is an Assistant Professor and Director of the Motor Speech Disorders Program, Department of Surgery, Division of Speech Pathology & Audiology, Duke University. He returned to Duke to join the academic faculty following completion of his PhD in rehabilitation science from the University of Florida in 2007. Dr. Jones has been practicing as a speech-language pathologist for over ten years and maintains a busy outpatient clinic. His clinical and research interests are broadly in the areas of neurogenic speech and swallowing disorders. Recent awards include the 2007 New Century Scholars Doctoral Scholarship from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Foundation. When not working, he enjoys spending time with his family, reading, and music.


Angela T. Morgan

Angela Morgan is currently a research fellow at the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute, Royal Childrens Hospital and University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia.


John C. Rosenbek

He has practiced speech-language pathology for 35 years. Along the way he has earned the Honors of the Association and the Frank Kleffner Career Clinical Award for sustained clinical excellence. He maintains an active outpatient clinic. In addition, his research into treatment of swallowing and prosodic abnormalities continues. He also is mentoring a number of PhD students who are part of the College's interdisciplinary Rehabilitation Science Program. In his spare time he rides his bike and plants trees.
