The Leibniz Lab for Relational Communication Research is entering new territory with its interdisciplinary research: To gain a better understanding of communication expertise from the complementary fields of speech and language science / therapy and computer / information science are combined. Innovative technology is being developed which analyzes human communication from a micro-perspective (micro-sequence analysis of dyadic communication) and macro-perspective (elicitation of language and communicative interaction mass data). The technology is applied in our lab as well as in-vivo in the field. Our basic and applied research concerning communication development, communication impairments, optimizing learning environment will render relevant results for both disciplines: To support people with communicative needs and to advance neuronal networks and machine learning.

Our Vision
Basic research at the interface of human and digital communication: Its relational choreography
Applied research supporting people with communicative impairment of all ages.
Interdisciplinary development of innovative research technology and tools (e.g. digitalizing language and communication research
Initiating interdisciplinary discourse between special needs and computer science
Constructing a model of communication which integrates aspects of human science and informationtechnology
