New PhD student
Today I had my first meeting with Natalie Hegarty and one of her supervisors Jill Titterington (her primary supervisor is Laurence Taggart). Natalie has recently begun her PhD studies through the University of Ulster in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I have agreed to be a co-supervisor on her project. We will meet via Skype, then in person next year when I go to Northern Ireland and Ireland. She is focusing on children with speech sound disorders.
