The Ohio State University’s Aphasia Laboratory is currently seeking participants for an NIHfunded project involving a free speech therapy for adults with language impairments after a stroke. Results from this work may assist families and patients in making informed stroke rehabilitation decisions, based on unique characteristics, such as genetics, cognitive skills, and brain structure after stroke. This study is mostly virtual and we can loan participants a laptop computer, and/or internet access if needed. Most in-person sessions can be held either in our lab (OSU’s campus) or at the participant’s home. The required MRI must occur at our elected facility in Columbus, OH. Participants will be paid $20 per session. Participants must fit the following criteria: • Between the ages of 18 and 85 • Native English speaker • Have had a left hemisphere stroke • Able to have an MRI If you or someone you know may be interested in getting involved, please call (614) 247-1982 or email aphasialab@osu.edu. For more information, feel free to visit our website, u.osu.edu/aphasialab/.
