Had a wonderful time with @ctld_lab at the @pmdalliance CEREBRandO con mi barrio Healthy Brains Workshop in Washington Heights. We loved dancing, boxing, and learning with and from people living with PD - and sharing clinical and research opportunities available at TC.

We have loved celebrating our @tc_csd @airwaylab graduates! Cheers to all the wonderful things to come! #teacherscollege #speechlanguagepathology #csd

The lab has been bustling with training opportunities. Special thanks to @aspirerespiratoryproducts, @caroline_brindo_slp, @iopimedical, @simplythick_llc for their generosity.

Next up, lab members will be attending the 30th World Congress on Parkinson’s Disease and Related Disorders, hosted by the International Association of Parkinsonism and Related Disorders (IAPRD) in NYC! Stay tuned - more updates to come!

We have recently enjoyed speaking at many Parkinson’s disease community and support groups around the tri-state area. The UAD team has also disseminated our clinical-research findings at meetings like the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab Stroke Course, NY Dysphagia Study Group, and through online webinars.

We have been quiet on social media, but busy in the lab! 🗣️

Lately we have been focused on community outreach and dissemination of our work. Here are some pictures from the Annual Dysphagia Research Society Meeting - where we enjoyed networking, learning, and sharing our work.

Hello! We have finally made the leap to @bsky.app. We look forward to sharing our lab updates on #cough and #swallowing #clinical research here!
