Here is my acceptance speech
I am so grateful to ASHA for the honour of receiving the Kawana Award for Lifetime Achievement in Publications. This award has been previously won by people who have shaped my research and career including Larry Shriberg, Ray Kent, and Marc Fey. While most people who have won this award are from the United States, two of my Australian colleagues have also won this award in 2014: Mark Onslow and Ann Packman.
I’m proud to have published 50 articles in ASHA journals (so far…) including receiving ASHA Editor’s Awards – in JSLHR and AJSLP. I am honoured to have written these 50 papers with 110 different co-authors. My colleague, Kathryn (Kate) Crowe and I published two papers about children’s consonant acquisition that have had over half a million downloads influencing research, policy and practice around the world. Building research capacity is a focus of my work and 30% (15) of the papers have my PhD students as first authors. Other colleagues who have co-authored a number of ASHA journal articles include: Sarah Verdon, Elise Baker, Jane McCormack, Kate Margetson, Sarah Masso, Helen Blake, Suzanne Hopf, Ben Pham, Linda Harrison, Cen Wang, Van Tran, Nicole McGill, and Karla Washington. ASHA journals are such an important place to publish high quality evidence that can change children’s lives. They have a substantial global reach across North America and the entire world. Thank you for publishing our work and for this important recognition.
