New episode!
What’s it like to live with dysphagia due to ineffective esophageal motility (IEM)?
Adrienne shares her journey: from first symptoms to diagnosis, daily challenges of living with an invisible disease, treatment strategies, and advice for both patients and healthcare professionals.

New pod 🎙️ with Prof. Taher Omari (Flinders University) on assessing pharyngeal & UES disorders using pharyngeal high-resolution manometry with impedance (P-HRM-I).
We cover:
👉 P-HRM-I principles
👉 Diagnostic procedures with P-HRM-I
👉 What this means for #dysphagia care & research

Medication intake for people with dysphagia isn't a topic that is discussed much. We're therefore happy that Kathryn joined us for this new episode. As a pharmacist, she has a lot of expertise to share on how to administer medication safely and effectively.
Enjoy listening!

Did you know a rare disease like myositis can cause serious swallowing issues?
🎧 In our new episode, Dr. Bendix Labeit unpacks the role of dysphagia in myositis and how we can best diagnose and treat it.

Our 89th Webinar will be on "Core Outcome Sets in Dysphagia Research: A practical guide for researchers and clinicians", presented by Julia Hirschwald.

We spoke with @streweek.bsky.social about why so much health research still falls short. Shaun argues that big parts of health research is “bad” & does not bring the needed value to the evidence-base. Tune in to learn how we can conduct “good” research for our patients 🎙️!

Very excited about this new episode where we talk about FEES with Prof. Heather Starmer! We explore the sometimes overlooked aspects of FEES preparation, consider how FEES & VFS can complement each other rather than compete, and discuss common interpretation challenges✨

Julia presented the results of her PhD study at the conference of the German Dysphagia Society 👩🏻‍🎓 so proud!!

🚨 SLPs, we need your help! 🚨 We are conducting a 20-30 minute survey study on perceptual ratings of pharyngeal residue in MBS 🩻. We’re looking for SLPs 👩‍⚕️ at all levels—clinicians, trainees, and students—to take part. Link to survey ➡️ www.tinyurl.com/2025CurtisAI...

Huge thanks to Tabby for giving us the permission to share her wonderful work on our podcast 🤗!

New episode – a special one!
Tabby Taylor Buck, science editor of Science at One on IC Radio @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social , interviewed us on dysphagia with David, who lives with dysphagia, & Prof. Alexandros Stratakos, developing 3D-printed food for dysphagia.

How do ENT specialists balance life-saving treatments with preserving essential functions like swallowing and speech? 🤔
In this episode we are joined by Prof. Laura Baijens, a leading expert in the field of laryngology and head and neck oncology surgery from the Netherlands.
Enjoy listening!

Huge thanks to NFOSD for letting us share their wonderful song "Won't go down" 🙏

Do we all mean the same when talking about dysphagia? Surprisingly, there is still no agreed definition 😱

Listen to Prof. Debra Suiter, Prof. Giselle Carnaby & Dr.
Martin Brodsky, who are working to establish a definition of dysphagia.

✨Wishing you all a wonderful holiday✨

I'm delighted to share our study on what people with #Parkinson's disease & family members consider important to measure in #dysphagia interventions.

Key message: penetration/aspiration is really important, but fear of choking may be overlooked in current research studies.

Call all #dysphagia clinicians and #medslp 🚨 please consider taking 10-15 minutes to fill out this international dysphagia survey and share with colleagues and friends 🥳 tinyurl.com/SEES-Survey-St…

🚨New Episode Alert🚨
Would you like to learn more about the practical side of pharyngeal electrical stimulation (PES) for dysphagia treatment? Then tune in to our new episode! We chat with Rachel Coates, a clinical specialist SLT, about benefits, challenges & tips for using PES in clinical practice.🎧

We're excited to share our new episode with you! Join us as Prof. Shaheen Hamdy explains the science behind pharyngeal electrical stimulation and how it can improve swallowing!
