In this episode, Michelle is delighted to be joined by an all-star lineup of colleagues to share how the ASHFoundation is leading the way in expediting research to practice. Dr. Julie Barkmeir-Kraemer, who currently serves as an ASHFoundation Board Member, is also a professor in the Dept of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Director of the Voice, Airway, Swallowing Translational (VAST) Research Lab, Clinic Director of the Voice Disorders Center, and Adjunct Faculty to the Dept of CSD at the University of Utah. They are joined by three recipients of the ASHFoundation’s scholarships, including Julie Feuerstein, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, who is an Assistant Professor School of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Central Florida and runs the Early Communication and Play (ECAP) lab there; Shirley Huang, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, who is currently a health and science policy fellow with the Society for Research in Child Development (SRCD)/American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) at the National Institutes of Health, Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development; and Jennifer Tucker Ph.D., PT, DPT, PCS is a Clinical Associate Professor in the Program of Physical Therapy at the University of Central Florida, where she serves as the Director of UCF Go Baby Go lab. By the end of this hour, their combined goal is for colleagues to understand the ASHFoundation's mission, identify different research fields that have grown because of their recipient’s funding, and find ways to volunteer.
