This Presidential Award is the highest honor bestowed by the U.S. government on scientists and engineers beginning their independent careers. \n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMoore\u0027s primary research interests are in finding objective markers in speech that can be used to characterize the human condition. His current research centers around the analysis of vocal affect as it relates to the overall mental state of the speaker. He has done work on analyzing the effectiveness of objective speech features as indicators of clinical depression and is continuing to explore other types of emotional disorders and types of affective expression. His research will be helpful in analyzing speech for emotion and stress, detecting deception, improving human-computer interaction in dialogue applications and clinical applications related to emotional and vocal disorders.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMoore was a recipient of the NSF\u0027s Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) award in 2005.
