We are ready to welcome back participants taking part in our sentence therapy. Read more about the project here, or watch our aphasia-friendly video about the project.
After a 15-month shutdown due to the pandemic, we recently gained UCL ethical approval to resume face-to-face testing. We have introduced measures to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission and to make testing as safe as possible, for example by scheduling testing sessions outside busy times on public transport. The project team are also wearing face masks and lab coats during testing sessions (…and now we look a bit like dentists, don’t you think?).
We are delighted that the Stroke Association has extended the timeline of our project to October 2022. So there’s still plenty of time to sign up to this study if you are interested.
We are looking for volunteers who have aphasia following a stroke at least 6 months ago, who are right handed (before the stroke) and who have difficulties understanding sentences and speaking. You can contact Fern or Claudia if you would like to find out more.
