In celebration of #IWD2024, we asked Rachel Bruce, Deputy Chief Investigator for @PLORASResearch, about her work researching speech and language recovery after stroke, and what advice she would give to women just starting out in the field! 🧠 #WomensHistoryMonth #InspireInclusion

The best advocates for better #aphasia services are people with aphasia themselves with the support of family, friends and professionals. Pls tell all your aphasia community about this conference in Coventry, UK 14&15 April, 2024. Register here: forms.office.com/pages/respo… – at Brisbane, Queensland

Just heard an update on this important study on a @CATs_Aphasia WG5 Zoom. This survey is closing in a week and more people with aphasia, friends and family from all countries of the world should complete it.
People with lived experience of #aphasia (people with #aphasia, family members, friends, carers) are invited to complete an international survey about #aphasiaawareness. Scan the QR code in the flyer or follow this link: : uniofqueensland.syd1.qualtri… Please share

In our recent paper, we show that a two-object naming task might be a better alternative to single object naming for language mapping in neurosurgery patients. Full paper here 👇 frontiersin.org/articles/10.… #Neurosurgery #brainmapping @FrontNeurosci @WCHN_UCL @UCL_MBPhD

Curious how patients with cerebellar stroke can produce speech accurately after having initial impairments? My master's thesis is finally published, thanks to the brilliant joint first author Sharon Geva & @WCHN_UCL @PLORASResearch @AGajardoVidal @tmhhope sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
