Research group Speech and Language Therapy: Participation through communication
Being able to communicate is essential for interpersonal contact and participation in society. Communication is so common that we often do not realise how the daily life of someone with a communicative disability is impacted by their condition. Our research group aims to improve the self-reliance of people with such disabilities.
