Speaking my languages: Speech Pathology Australia National Conference

Speech Pathology Australia National Conference

This week is the Speech Pathology Australia National Conference. It is the third year in a row that I am not attending, previously due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this time due to medical issues. However, I am co-presenting six papers, some of which I pre-recorded. I am grateful to my students and colleagues who are presenting on my behalf and am thankful for updates via Twitter and email.

Here are the papers I am co-authoring that will be presented this week:
