Help with stuttering research at MIT! [Our research group](https://sensein.group/) at the MIT McGovern Institute for Brain Research is looking for participants for an online at-home 1 month clinical study on new audio-based approaches for people who stutter. To participate, please fill out the form at [redcap.link/mumblemelodystudy](https://redcap.link/mumblemelodystudy). Here are some details about the study: We are exploring different auditory feedback modalities that may help increase fluency for people who stutter. Interested participants must: \- Identify as a person who stutters \- Have a compatible iPhone, iPad, or Mac \- Be above the age of 18 \- Live in the United States (as a US Citizen or green card holder) You will also need a separate browser-supporting device with a microphone that you can use for our online questionnaire and voice recording platform. Participation in this study will involve 5 weekly 30-40 minute testing sessions, and brief daily usage of our iOS application called Mumble Melody. You will receive up to $70 and receive a pair of Apple wired headphones. Further details are provided at the consent form link [redcap.link/mumblemelodystudy](https://redcap.link/mumblemelodystudy).
