Alicia K Vose, PhD

Alicia K. Vose, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, is an assistant professor in the Department of Neurology at the University of Florida College of Medicine – Jacksonville. She completed her doctorate in rehabilitation science at the University of Florida, where she investigated the role of kinematic biofeedback in dysphagia management and physiological mechanisms underlying normal and disordered airway protection. In her postdoctoral training, Dr. Vose focused on the development of novel rehabilitation strategies for impairments in breathing and swallowing. Currently, she is investigating the effects of acute intermittent hypoxia and respiratory strength training to enhance breathing and swallowing in people with chronic spinal cord injury as well as the effects of diaphragm stimulation on respiratory neural drive and function.
