Alexandra Jesse is an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she has held a faculty position since 2010. She additionally maintains an adjunct appointment in the Department of Linguistics and serves on the Executive Board of the Auditory-Visual Speech Association (AVISA). Her research examines how humans integrate auditory and visual information to recognize speech, with particular focus on the role of visual cues from speakers' faces in comprehension. Dr. Jesse earned her Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 2005 under Dr. Dominic Massaro's supervision. Prior to joining UMass, she conducted independent research at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in the Netherlands, supported by awards from the German Research Foundation, Max Planck Society, and a VENI career grant from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research. Her research program investigates audiovisual speech perception across multiple dimensions including lexical influences on phonetic processing, adaptation to speaker-specific idiosyncrasies, and the impact of aging and dyslexia on multisensory integration. She employs methodologies ranging from behavioral experiments and eye-tracking to fMRI, with consistent emphasis on how visual information modulates auditory processing in challenging listening conditions. Current work explores fine-phonetic detail in visual speech for unfamiliar talker recognition and cross-linguistic stress pattern acquisition. Analysis of her recent publications reveals sustained investigation into top-down lexical influences on speech perception, with growing emphasis on neurocognitive mechanisms (evidenced by fMRI studies) and developmental applications. Her work consistently bridges theoretical psycholinguistics with practical implications for aging populations and clinical conditions like dyslexia, demonstrating how visual cues compensate for auditory degradation in speech-in-noise scenarios. Dr. Jesse's scientific recognition includes: Fulbright Scholarship (1999) VENI award from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research She has secured research funding from major organizations including the German Research Foundation and Max Planck Society during her postdoctoral phase, and continues to lead an active research program through university support and potential current grants.
