We are pleased to announce the next study day will be jointly run by the South West Speech CEN with the Bristol Speech and Language Therapy Research Unit. The topic
is 'Assessing speech in children
from multilingual backgrounds – current research and clinical
applications'
Barbara May Bernhardt and Joe
Stemberger are going to present on “An international cross-linguistic
project in typical and protracted phonological development: Clinical
Applications”. You can read more about their work at http://phonodevelopment.sites.olt.ubc.ca/
We will also have talks along
the same theme from Jane Speake (University of Sheffield and previously head of
Cambridge) and Rhonwen Lewis (UWIC). The event will end with a panel discussion
where attendees can ask questions of the panel.
More details about the talks
will follow shortly along with the booking information. It will be on Friday 19th October at The Vassall Centre in Bristol and will be an afternoon session (13.30-16.30). We have tried to keep costs low, and it will be £16.31 (which includes eventbrite fees of £1.31)
