Dr. LaCroix was awarded a 2023 New Investigator’s Research Grant by the ASHFoundation in September. This grant will explore whether music listening can be used to improve attention and language abilities for people with aphasia. We are actively recruiting people with aphasia for this study. Please email us at abclab@purdue.edu or call us at 765-496-2435 to learn more.

Dr. LaCroix and two former students published a paper recently in Aphasiology, which took the first step towards developing an assessment that can be used to measure auditory attention in people with aphasia. Check out the paper here.
