The iTalkBetter clinical trial is out: tinyurl.com/5up6cc7m It's a self-supporting naming app that helps people with aphasia make large gains in their ability to retrieve trained words. Connected speech also improved and iTalkBetter use caused changes in brain volume #aphasia

BREAKING: Fox News has officially cut away from Donald Trump’s speech to cover this packed house in Savannah, Georgia at Kamala Harris’ rally. Even the media is acknowledging Kamala Harris has the energy and momentum. Retweet so all Americans see this.

The BELS is brief but comprehensive so it is faster than standard cognitive assessment and targets executive language and memory, rather than classical aphasia and/or severe and obvious cognitive deficits, which are missed in current screening tools.

Incredibly sad. Eleanor was such a lovely person when I was at Queen Sq. I always include her taxi and bus studies in my postdoctoral clinical neuropsychology lectures - classics that will stand the test of time. Great loss for us all.
