Such a useful resource of what we know about measuring conversation following #aphasia therapy. Spoiler: it's complex & a bit messy with hints of promise 😅 Kudos to @AziosSLP for leading this. There's some interesting work in the pipeline about how we can streamline measurement

One of our team, @Amber_M_SLT, found this app recently. A really useful, visually based app for complying a shopping list. We think it would be great to try with some of our aphasic clients. Available on Apple and Android weneed.ch/en

Thanks @NatashaLannin! #SpeechPathology week is a timely reminder that communication is a human right. From everyday reading/writing/chatting/joking/arguing to unfamiliar situations like being admitted to hospital w stroke, *communication is connection*

Thank you for your fantastic work on the @COMPAREaphasia discourse data & for being a valued member of the @aphasiacre. I so enjoyed working with you & our other RAs. I reckon I learnt as much from our discussions as I taught. The future of aphasia research & rehab is bright 🌟
#mySLTday A very bittersweet day as I finish up my work with the @aphasiacre on discourse analysis for people with aphasia. It has been the most rewarding experience, and I could not feel more thankful. Please indulge me while I share a few highlights... (1/8)
