So cool to see not 1 but 2 articles in the latest edition of Dysphagia evaluating the role of machine learning/AI in screening for #dysphagia. This could be a gamechanger for health professionals, systems and most importantly, those with dysphagia! link.springer.com/journal/45…

So proud of my sister from another mister @_emma_thomas, for being a boss babe & now being such a phenomenal example for her little girl. May we know them, may we be them, may we raise them!

Today marks 10 years for me at @Griffith_Uni. Taking a chance on a new program was never so rewarding! Much has changed during this time but my energy and enthusiasm for supporting the next generation of speech pathologists is as strong as ever.

Dear about to graduate SPs. It’s a job seekers market. You want support, learning opportunities and a yes culture. What you think is the best might not be. Reach out, dig deeper, ask around. #SLP2B

We hosted our annual Dysphagia Kitchen recipe challenge at @Griffith_Uni this week & the @GUSpeechies students came up with such amazing texture-modified innovations. The @iddsi_org Level 3 Mulled Wine being tested here by Ash & Adiya has me looking forward to winter! 🍷

Mind.blown. Can actually see our street if you look closely! 🤣
Just in case you've been wondering (and I'm sure you have), the map that comes up at the start of Neighbours is actually the Coorparoo/Greenslopes/Holland Park area of Brisbane.
