Everyday communication involves sentences. 💬
@UCLLangCog we evaluate a digital #aphasia therapy for sentence processing. Prof Varley is presenting on the novel UTILISE app (funded by @TheStrokeAssoc) at the #UKSF23.

First fab #BetterConv2023 session on service user experiences of CPT. A partner says “You have to constantly relearn” in the context of PPA; another partner of a person with aphasia: “once a week didn’t feel like enough”. How best to support ongoing & intensive CPT?🤔 @BCconf2023

Dr Suzanne Beeke from @BCAphasia highlights that we shouldn’t wait until we’ve exhausted impairment-based therapy approaches before we offer communication partner training #IARC2022 – at Philadelphia, PA
Excellent first block of talks at #iarc2022 all focused on psychological interventions for aphasia. Looking forward to virtually joining again post-toddler-bedtime at 9pm in the U.K. Suzanne Beeke will be presenting on communication partner training for families @BCAphasia
