@duffalab Couldn’t have done it without you!

[Deborah Levy @deb_f_levy]

@dr_srishtin Thank you so much for cluing me into this role!

[Deborah Levy @deb_f_levy]

Very excited to announce my new role in the @Princeton Writing Program! Can't wait to get started teaching first years about the brain and how to write about it :)

[Prof Kate Watkins @kateewatkins]

Just over one week left to apply for the @cshlmeetings Genetics & Neurobiology of Language course https://t.co/3cMbra5qy9

[@BrainComms @braincomms]

Levy et al. use #machinelearning to predict language across the first year of recovery from aphasia post-#stroke, explaining nearly 2/3 of the variance in outcomes. @deb_f_levy @sarahmschneck @MarianneCasilio @smwilsonau @annakasdan https://t.co/ZpdyUZrrNa

[Deborah Levy @deb_f_levy]

My dissertation work with @smwilsonau -- in which we show the importance of lesion *location* in predicting recovery from aphasia after stroke -- is finally out! Please check out the paper (plus its aphasia-friendly version!) at the link below: https://t.co/HR2ueKz2lY

Super proud of this—thanks, @cogsci_soc!—and stoked to have gotten to collab with @bhaya_ilina, who simply rules. (In addition to being an amazing scientist, she also drew everything in this whole dang video! Can you believe?!)

[CogSci Society @cogsci_soc]

Ilina Bhaya-Grossman @bhaya_ilina is a PhD student in the UC Berkeley-UCSF Bioengineering program and Deb Levy @deb_f_levy is a post-doc at @UCSF. Their video is a wonderful balance between being educational and engaging. #CogSciMindChallenge

Trying to think of a quote tweet that will accurately capture my love, admiration, and gratitude for @annakasdan…simply can’t! The world of science is now better with Dr. Kasdan in it! HUGE congrats to this sparkling gem of a human

[Reyna L Gordon @ReynaGordonPhD]

Huge congratulations to our newest PhD: Dr Kasdan @annakasdan passed her defense with shining colors! We are SO proud!!!! @VanderbiltENT @VanderbiltBrain #musicscience #slpeeps

Seconding @annakasdan's endorsement of @GwilliamsL ! Check out her post if you're interested in managing a super exciting new lab!

[Anna Kasdan @annakasdan]

RUN to fill out applications, everyone! Laura is THE best and kindest scientist and is the type of person who will make IRB protocols so fun, you will fall in love with them and be clamoring for more!

[Neurobiology of Language @jneurolang]

“They’ll start their own journals that are non-profit and open-access.” Hello 👋 from @jneurolang!

[Deborah Levy @deb_f_levy]

@smwilsonau @alex_ander timely indeed!!

[Elaine Kearney @ek_kearney]

Assistant professors in communication sciences and disorders in the US, take part in our study!

[Deborah Levy @deb_f_levy]

Last year, I met a woman who'd just had a left pre-central tumor removed. She's brilliant, kind, and an excellent communicator—but with some curious difficulties mapping sounds onto movements and letters onto sounds. Interested? See new case study in JNS: https://t.co/pBMewhMiJp

[Deborah Levy @deb_f_levy]

@annakasdan @AphasiaAccess Such an amazing conference and so wonderful to reunite with other @VUHearSpeechPhD and SLP grads! Sorry @sarahmschneck couldn’t make it but obviously she was with us in spirit :)

[Anna Kasdan @annakasdan]

Had the best time at my first @AphasiaAccess Summit this weekend, presenting w @deb_f_levy on the Aphasia Group of Middle Tennessee, founded and led by Dominique Herrington! Such a well organized and inspiring conference, very possibly my favorite one of my career.

[Stephen Wilson @smwilsonau]

Check out our new paper in @Brain1878. We recruited 334 acute stroke patients & we describe acute aphasia & subsequent recovery trajectories with respect to the main explanatory factor which is NEUROANATOMY. Six years of work from our incredible team, a labor of love!
