I will soon be recruiting a postdoc for a ~2-year mixed methods (quali + quant) project about real-world communication strategies used by people with aphasia. Spread the word and get in touch with any Qs. I’ll post a link to the actual job description and app page when it's live.

Manuscript status: postponed. Sunny, warm, carefree. Main result: p > .05 As an academic, there's always something that you could be working on. However, that doesn't mean you should always be working on it. Take a break. #AcademicChatter @PhD_Genie @LifeAfterMyPhD etc.

Inspiring keynote by @MarianBrady. 💯 Even though it may (obviously) sound counterintuitive, the aphasia research literature is ripe with small-scale studies pursuing similar hypotheses. However, collaborative efforts facilitate progress for all. Who wants to collab? 👋 #NAC23

At the start of my talk at #NAC23, I presented this slide (minus MRI) along with the question: Given the (extensive) biographical and neuropsychological profiles, do you think these clients will respond to anomia (#aphasia) Tx (whopping 30h)? And, critically, why? 🤔

I share the slide and question because it's sparked numerous interesting conversations in the past couple of days. I'd love to hear from #NAC23 attendees, #Aphasia researchers, and clinicians.
