I am the leader of Uhura Bionics - aimed at enriching communication of people with atypical speech.We are working on devices and algorithms that make it possible (e.g. amplifiers, electronic larynx, software for remote and offline communication). I am responsible for managing the company, as well as testing the solution with users. I can do it effectively due to my experience in project management and user experience research.Our mission challenge speech disabilities and/or discomfort for 1B+ people resulting from a whole array of conditions:laryngeal cancer, laryngectomy,stroke,cerebral palsy (CP),multiple sclerosis (MS),spinal muscular atrophy (SMA),amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS),down syndrome,Parkinson's disease, myasthenia gravis, sulcus vocalis,*presbyopia and fold flaccidity (vocal aging),**voice dysphoria of transgender individuals.***​​UHURA BIONICS: WE HEAR YOU.www.uhura.pl

Human Interactivity and Language Lab operates at the Faculty of Psychology, University of Warsaw. It gathers people interested in the importance of interactivity for human cognition. We study basic and natural (physical, situated, embodied and value-laden) interactions of people with each other and with the world, seeking in them both sources and motivations for cognitive processes and structures.http://hill.psych.uw.edu.pl/

I'm a leader and co-creator of MedTech Students UW, which is a learned student society for scientific collaboration between Warsaw University and Warsaw Medical University on specific health challenges.

My scientific interests concern human communication, speech, and the application of newest technologies to counter disabilities. I'm a leader of UHURA project aimed at the restoration of natural interaction after laryngectomy. Currently I work on the framework of thinking about bionic communication inspired by speech, hearing, visual and motor disorders.
