Swallow the Gap
Gaps: Where Are They... Really? Progression in Perspective and the Importance of Nuance.
Dr. Vose touches on the importance of nuance while reflecting on her 2018 paper, "A Survey of Clinician Decision Making When Identifying Swallowing Impairments and Determining Treatment," and why understanding the methodology in research is a key element of evidence based practice. This episode also discusses translating science outside of speech-language pathology into our practice, the need for more treatment research, and our motivation to keep growing as a profession.
"By acknowledging the gap, it promotes promise for the future." - Alicia K. Vose, PhD, CCC-SLP
