Not all criticism is constructive. Not all critics are thinking critically. Weak critiques attack your identity. Decent critiques challenge your ideas. Strong critiques sharpen your thinking and improve your ideas. Listen closely to the people who care enough to help you grow.

#JSLHR study suggests that learning to read influences phonological awareness not only by refining phonological representations but also via strengthening the automatic mapping between phonemes & letters during spoken language processing. on.asha.org/3Sx1R1p SIGPerspectives

Remember, your relationships are priceless. In crisis, they're your lifeline. So, prioritize your loved ones over papers, patents & grants. As academics, it's easy to get lost in academic achievements. But, remember to nurture your friendships, as they provide genuine support!

Excited to share this study examining #audiology and #cochlearimplant utilization rates across the country. CI use remains low and increased diagnostic audiology use did not correlate with CI utilization! How can we continue to strive to improve access? ACIAlliance @WUSTL_ENT
