Available projects

  • Clinical implementation of an intensive comprehensive aphasia treatment

    The University of Queensland is establishing the Queensland Aphasia Rehabilitation Centre (QARC), the first specialist aphasia research and rehabilitation centre in Australia. In partnership with Queensland Health, the QARC will deliver state-of-the-art services to people with aphasia and their families. Using a hybrid effectiveness-implementation design, this UQ funded PhD project will evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the UQ LIFT (Language Impairment and Function Therapy) program on impact on communicative function, mental health and quality of life within a real-world clinical setting. Qualitative methods will be employed to (1) describe the contextual factors which influence treatment fidelity and clinician and patient participation in the intervention; and (2) identify barriers and facilitators to implementation. This project would suit candidates with a background in speech pathology. Chief investigators: Dr Sarah Wallace and Professor David Copland

  • Cost effectiveness of aphasia rehabilitation

    The University of Queensland is establishing the Queensland Aphasia Rehabilitation Centre (QARC), the first specialist aphasia research and rehabilitation centre in Australia. In partnership with Queensland Health, the QARC will deliver state-of-the-art services to people with aphasia and their families. This UQ funded PhD project will involve a health economics investigation that will determine the cost-effectiveness of a comprehensive aphasia treatment program (UQ LIFT- Language Impairment and Function Therapy) implemented in a tertiary health facility. Resources and costs will be considered in relation to improvement on relevant communication scales and quality adjusted life years. This project would suit candidates with a background in speech pathology or health economics / public health. Chief investigator: Professor David Copland and Dr Sarah Wallace

  • Neuroimaging of predictors in aphasia recovery

    The aim of this NHMRC funded research and UQ funded PhD scholarship is to determine whether brain activity and structure observed after stroke predict subsequent aphasia (language impairment) recovery and response to treatment. Participants will be tested on a clinically language battery and scanned at 1, 3 and 6 months post-onset, with half the participants receiving treatment at 1 month. Imaging will be used to identify language-related brain activity, white matter tract integrity, and lesion-symptom mapping. Background in one or more of the following is required. Speech Pathology, Clinical Linguistics, Psychology, NeuroImaging, Cognitive Science, Cognitive Neuroscience
