This experience has influenced and informed my subsequent research and teaching. My first experimental work (undertaken as part of a master's degree) was conducted while working in a neurological rehabilitation unit.

Since joining academic life, I have investigated a range of speech and language difficulties including acquired apraxia, speech disorders in children, fluency and aphasia. My publications include papers in Brain & Language, Aphasiology; Behavior & Brain Sciences; International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders; Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics.
