So wonderful to hear the benefits #slt #slpeeps gain from participation in @PDCOMM_trial, large, multi centred #trial! Research benefits from real-world therapist expertise, clinically relevant participants making finding more relevant to real patients.

[Christina Smith @csmithUCL]

#pdcomm_trial and other multicentre projects is an excellent way to engage with research in clinical practice. Thanks for such positive feedback about your involvement #ReSNetSLT #RCSLT

#ResNetSLT - answering @EllieJSLT question about what it's like to be involved with a trial alongside clinical practice

[LucyRoebuckSaez @SltLucy]

@EllieJSLT @ReSNetSLT @hannah_treloar @PDCOMM_trial @SimpsonResearch It had its challenges certainly especially to balance our time in research vs our day to day ward based role! But the experience gained and skills will set us in amazing stead for the future! Helps hugely to have a supportive manager too 😃

Wonderful to hear the benefit that #slpeeps #SLTchat #slts gain in this way from from participating in #research #RCTs @PDCOMM_trial funded by @NIHRresearch @NIHRtakepart @NIHRcommunity which will benefit people with #dysarthria and PD @ParkinsonsUK

[Sophie Harkness (née Chalmers) @SChalmersSLT]

My lovely fellow SLTs @SltLucy and @hannah_treloar @WaltonCentre write about their experiences participating in the multi-centre @PDCOMM_trial!

A great example how SLTs can be research-active alongside clinical practice, including the benefits and challenges along the way 💫

[PD COMM trial @PDCOMM_trial]

Great to hear that #PDCOMM is having this effect: "we would strongly recommend the experience to any SLT thinking of being involved in any research trial." Thanks for all your efforts @SltLucy and @hannah_treloar!

Well done. Isn’t it great to be part of a research network @PDCOMM_trial Thanks for all your work in ensuring the trial is successful. We will have good evidence for slt with people with Parkinson’s @ClinAcSLT
