Interested in a PhD focused on #aphasia rehabilitation research? We are accepting applications for the current Jan 15th cycle. Co-mentoring opportunities with other PTARI PIs (@michaelwdickey, @sarahliz511, Will Hula). Please share! More info here: lrcl.pitt.edu/information-pr…

I'm looking forward giving this talk on Friday. Thank you #CSTAR for the opportunity! More info here: cstar.sc.edu/wp-content/upl… #aphasia @PittCSD

@PittLRCL is doing phenomenal things. Don't miss his talk this coming Friday, or if you're lame like me and can't make it, don't forget that it'll be put on YouTube after!

Join Erin Schmura (she/her), 2nd year MA-SLP, Concentration in Voice on Friday, February 17 at 11:30 EST, zoom link in flyer. Topic and Discussion: the Voice and Trauma information poster based upon Erin's independent research study with mentor Dr. Leah Helou. #PittCSD

Need a primer on reproducible analysis of small-N designs in CSD? This #JSLHR tutorial uses open data, annotated scripts, & a web app to explore common effect sizes using examples from aphasiology. on.asha.org/3X0EtIj @rb_cavanaugh @PittLRCL @SIGPerspectives @CSDisseminate

#PittCSD is accepting applications for a SLP Faculty Member with expertise in pediatric communication disorders! #PittSHRS Apply here: cfopitt.taleo.net/careersection/…

#PittCSD was well represented at the Academy of Aphasia meeting! PhD student, Rob Cavanaugh won the Academy of Aphasia Student Prize for best student presentation and Dr. Mike Dickey was elected to the Academy Board of Governors! #PittSHRS

Thanks to the organizers of #AoA2022 & @AphasiaLab for such a fun, exciting, and dynamic conference! While we're all still glowing, please help me spread that word that I am currently accepting PhD applications. Come to Pitt for training in #aphasia rehabilitation research!

Terrific symposium on #pauses #fillers in #aphasia #AoA2022

I was too busy taking notes to tweet anything during #AoA2022.. Thanks to the organisers for a very stimulating event, I’m already looking forward to next year! Getting to know other @NIDCD fellows face-to-face was a real highlight for us inadequately socialised pandemic PhDs.

Stellar #AoA2022 presentation by @PittCSD and @LABlab_pitt alum @HaleyDresang, describing fascinating findings on how semantic and phonological processing abilities moderate the effects of TMS on #aphasia treatment response.

The hits keep coming - @PittCSD and @PittLRCL stalwart @rb_cavanaugh just presented exciting evidence that the act of feature generation during SFA contributes not only to tx outcomes but in-the-moment word production in #aphasia #AoA2022

Nicol Castro talking about #social #networks in aphasia #AoA2022

So much fun socializing at the reception @PAFAcademy #AoA2022

The one and only @DaniSBassett giving the keynote on #brain #network #AoA2022

Grat #aoa2022 talk by @joanneniemk et al. on semantic network and creativity in people with #aphasia. Evidence that PWA are *more* creative in a Forward Flow Task than people without aphasia. Adapting to anomia with successful circumlocution *is* creativity!

One of my fav parts of conferences is networking! It's not quite the same since I'm attending virtually, but if you're at #AoA2022 please reach out if you'd like to chat and we'll make it happen! Hit my DMs or my email!

@HaleyDresang great talk on TMS and aphasia #AoA2022

@wmatchin #AoA2022 werncikes model revisited

Terrific talk by @wmatchin at #AoA2022 !! Would you expect the same results if you were to use different non-canonical sentence? Linguistic processes and verb types may play a role.
