Vocology, originally coined by voice scientist Ingo R. Titze[1], has been defined as the science and practice of voice habilitation[2] [3] [4]. It parallels audiology, the study of hearing and the treatment of hearing disorders. Vocology combines the disciplines of speech and language pathology, and laryngology, as well as singing training and voice training for actors and public speakers. The study of vocology has advanced such that it is a fundamental part of current voice research (including a journal entitled Logopedics, Phoniatrics, Vocology) and training programs.[citation needed] Training in vocology is or have been offered at institutions such as the National Center for Voice and Speech (Denver, CO), Westminster Choir College of Rider University (Princeton, NJ), The Grabscheid Voice Center at Mount Sinai Medical Center (NY), and the Vox Humana Laboratory at St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital (NY).
