About

Introduction

I am a clinical linguist, working with both adults and children with acquired aphasia after brain damage.  
My research is strongly linked to clinical questions, such as the effectiveness of speech and language therapy and the development of new tools for assessing functional communication.
My current research focuses on acquired aphasia in children. Little is known about the effectiveness of language therapy in children with aphasia. The goal of my research is to improve language therapy in children with aphasia.
