This article, “LaDIVA: A neurocomputational model providing laryngeal motor control for speech acquisition and production,” introduces LaDIVA, a model designed to better understand laryngeal movements during speech and its connection to the brain. By using both neurobiology and computational modeling, LaDIVA simulates interactions between brain circuits, biomechanics and motor control involved in speech production. These simulations give valuable insight on how the brain coordinates movements to produce speech sounds as well as help our understanding of speech disorders. Which could potentially lead to better interventions for individuals with speech impairments.
