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:
