Someone on campus this morning was walking down our corridor putting up signs that say "masks recommend", but they weren't wearing one...🤦‍♀️😷

Tonight, Mayo Clinic is lighting its buildings purple and yellow in recognition of #DLDDay. On average, 2 students in every class of 30 have a neurodevelopmental condition called Developmental Language Disorder or DLD. Learn more: bit.ly/3CttP4i

Rene Stolwyk presenting his super-useful research on how mask wearing impacts neuropsych assessment. Answer = not much, and the comparability with telehealth differs for diff tests. If deciding modality, go with patient preference! #CCNConf

Excited to kick off the #LTU_SPPH_HDR day with a great opening from Dana Wong, and my first ever conference panel on #phdlife

Excellent pre-submission talk from Todd Pickering today, including excellent memes (as usual). Now the submission race is on! 🖥️⌨️✍️🏁🏆 #phdlife #AcademicTwitter

Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) may be diagnosed when someone has a long term difficulty using or understanding words and sentences. It's common and everyone needs to know more naplic.org.uk/resource/devel… #DLDday

Very excited that my thesis was passed last week (with minor amendments)! Arrived just in time for a long weekend if celebrating 🎉🥳

Calling all teachers - a great free resource to learn about DLD from an expert! #DLD
