PROJECT ABSTRACT The annual Academy of Aphasia meeting is the premier conference for researchers in the field of language processing and aphasia. Since the first meeting in 1963, this international meeting has brought together an interdisciplinary group of linguists, psychologists, neurologists, and speech-language pathologists to discuss the latest research in the field of aphasia, including theoretical, clinical, and rehabilitation aspects of this language disorder. The topics at the conference range widely but almost always cover all aspects of language processing including phonological processing, lexical-semantic processing, syntactic processing, orthographic processing, bilingualism, computational modeling, non-invasive and invasive brain imaging, language recovery, neuroplasticity, and rehabilitation. In this renewal proposal, we continue with two initiatives implemented in the first cycle of the grant which have been very successful and introduce a third initiative (“Fireside Chats on equity in science”) to continue to build the research and training caliber of young aphasia researchers. We continue our first initiative that involves a formal mentoring program for young investigators entering the field of aphasia research. In this program, selected student/post-doctoral fellows from interdisciplinary backgrounds who are first authors at the conference are paired with a mentor. This mentor will provide specific feedback about the mentee’s presentation and general mentorship to the mentee about research and academic careers. This program has received very positive feedback in the past five years of the grant cycle with long term benefits for the young researchers. The second initiative we continue will be an hour-long seminar (New Frontiers in Aphasia Research) that covers the background and approach of a state-of-the-art methodology, that has an application to the study of aphasia. Given the highly interdisciplinary nature of aphasia research, these workshops will bridge the communication between aphasia researchers and scientists and experts who have developed new approaches to study the brain. The third and new initiative will be a “Fireside Chat on Equity in Science” where each year we discuss aspects of equity in science. Our inaugural meeting in 2022 started an important discussion on the under-representation and under-citation of publication from women and minorities in neuroscience/neurology fields. Over the five years, we will invite editors of journals, reviewers on different funding panels to encourage dialog about how to reduce explicit and implicit bias in academia and encourage science from underrepresented minorities in the field. In the last five years, the NIDCD program has changed the fabric and energy at the conference for the better and has established a process to ensure a pipeline of highly talented and trained scientists pursuing a research or clinical career with strong foundations in interdisciplinary research on aphasia. This renewal application continues this important work.

项目摘要 一年一度的失语症学会会议是语言领域研究人员的首要会议 自 1963 年第一次会议以来，这次国际会议汇集了众多专家。 由语言学家、心理学家、神经学家和言语病理学家组成的跨学科小组进行讨论 失语症领域的最新研究，包括理论、临床和康复方面 会议的主题范围广泛，但几乎总是涵盖语言的各个方面。 处理包括语音处理、词汇语义处理、句法处理、拼写处理 处理、双语、计算建模、非侵入性和侵入性脑成像、语言恢复、 在这项更新提案中，我们继续实施两项举措。 第一轮拨款非常成功，并引入了第三项举措（“炉边谈话”） 科学公平”）继续培养年轻失语症研究人员的研究和培训能力。 我们继续我们的第一项计划，其中涉及为进入该领域的年轻研究人员提供正式的指导计划 在该项目中，从跨学科中挑选了学生/博士后研究员。 会议上的第一作者会与一位导师配对，该导师将提供具体的指导。 关于受训者的演讲的反馈以及对受训者的研究和一般指导 该计划在过去五年的资助周期中收到了非常积极的反馈。 为年轻研究人员带来长期利益 我们的第二项举措将持续一个小时。 研讨会（失语症研究新前沿），涵盖最先进的背景和方法 鉴于失语症的高度跨学科性质，该方法可应用于失语症的研究。 失语症研究，这些研讨会将为失语症研究人员和科学家之间的沟通架起桥梁 第三个新举措将是开发出研究大脑的新方法的专家。 “科学公平炉边谈话”每年我们都会讨论科学公平的各个方面。 2022年会议就出版物代表性不足和引用不足问题展开了重要讨论 在五年内，我们将邀请来自神经科学/神经病学领域的女性和少数族裔的编辑。 期刊、不同资助小组的审稿人鼓励就如何减少显性和隐性的对话 学术界的偏见并鼓励该领域代表性不足的少数群体的科学。 在过去的五年里，NIDCD 计划使会议的结构和能量变得更好 并建立了一个流程，以确保培养一批才华横溢、训练有素的科学家，以追求 在失语症跨学科研究方面具有坚实基础的研究或临床职业。 应用程序继续这项重要的工作。
