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 年度失语学院会议是语言领域研究人员的总理会议 处理和失语症。自1963年第一次会议以来，这次国际会议已经结合在一起 跨学科的语言学家，心理学家，神经科医生和语言病理学家讨论 失语症领域的最新研究，包括理论，临床和康复方面 语言障碍。会议范围的主题广泛，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，拼字法 处理，双语，计算建模，非侵入性和侵入性脑成像，语言恢复， 神经可塑性和康复。在这项续签建议中，我们继续执行了两项倡议 这笔赠款的第一个周期非常成功，并引入了第三项倡议（“炉边聊天 科学的公平性”）继续建立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个倡议，涉及为年轻调查人员进行正式的心理计划 失语症研究领域。在此计划中，跨学科的选定学生/博士后研究员 会议上第一作者的背景与心理配对。这种心理将提供特定的 关于Menee的介绍和对Menee的一般资术的反馈， 学术职业。该计划在赠款周期的过去五年中获得了非常积极的反馈 为年轻研究人员带来长期利益。我们继续的第二项倡议将是一个小时 涵盖最先进的背景和方法的研讨会（口感研究的新领域） 方法论，该方法应用于失语症的研究。考虑到高度跨学科的性质 失语症研究，这些研讨会将弥合失语症研究人员与科学家之间的沟通 以及开发了研究大脑的新方法的专家。第三和新计划将是 “关于科学公平的炉边聊天”，每年我们在其中讨论科学中的公平方面。我们的就职典礼 2022年的会议开始了关于表达不足和发表不足的重要讨论 来自神经科学/神经病学领域的妇女和少数民族。在五年中，我们将邀请 期刊，不同资金面板上的审稿人，以鼓励关于如何减少明确和隐性的对话 学术界的偏见，并鼓励该领域代表性不足的少数民族的科学。 在过去的五年中，NIDCD计划改变了会议上的结构和精力，以使会议更好 并建立了一个过程，以确保一系列高度才华横溢和训练有素的科学家追求 研究或临床职业在跨学科研究中具有强大的基础。这个更新 应用程序继续这项重要工作。
