We are thrilled to share some wonderful news from our Senior Lecturer, Claire Thomas. She has officially passed her doctoral viva!

Claire has spent nearly five years dedicated to developing resources for singing teachers to help singers with Muscle Tension Dysphonia (MTD). Her research and commitment have been an incredible asset to the singing teaching community, providing practical tools and insights to support vocal health.

This milestone marks the culmination of years of hard work, passion and expertise, and the start of an exciting new chapter in her professional journey.

Everyone here at Voice Study Centre sends huge congratulations to Dr 😉 Claire on this remarkable achievement. We look forward to seeing what comes next.
