Research Symposium in Clinical Aphasiology - Project Summary/Abstract This application requests 5 years of additional support for a Research Symposium in Clinical Aphasiology, to be held within the annual Clinical Aphasiology Conference (CAC). Aphasiology is the study of aphasia, an impairment of understanding and producing language that results from brain damage. The CAC is the oldest and most prominent scientific meeting dedicated to research with clear implications for clinical assessment and treatment of aphasia and related disorders. Between 120 and 150 participants attend CAC each year, each earning an invitation by submitting an abstract of a completed research project. Participants include speech- language pathologists, linguists, psycholinguists, (cognitive) neuropsychologists, and neurologists who represent the world’s foremost investigators of clinically-relevant issues. The goals of the Research Symposium in Clinical Aphasiology are to contribute: (1) to the vitality of ongoing research in clinical aphasiology, via a coordinated set of keynote and topically-related platform presentations; and (2) to the development of new investigators, particularly students from traditionally underrepresented minority/ethnic groups. The bulk of the proposed budget is to support travel expenses for 15 student fellows. These student fellows will receive practice in presenting and discussing their own research or research plans, and will participate in several specially-designed mentoring opportunities. Evaluations of past Research Symposia have been highly positive and student participation at CAC has increased substantially due to the grant. The 2023 CAC (and Research Symposium in Clinical Aphasiology) is scheduled for May 30- June 3 in a location to be determined. Invited speakers will present their most current work on social determinants of health, and on community-based participatory research and social design as applied to clinical trials of hearing care for older adults. The 2024 meeting will be held on approximately the same dates in a location also to be determined, with a potential topic of community-based approaches for addressing healthcare disparities. Potential topics for subsequent years include include disability theory and social and cultural influences on epistemological boundaries among researchers.
