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 每年的失语症学会会议是语言领域研究人员的首要会议 加工和失语症。自1963年第一次会议以来，这一国际会议汇集了一个 一个由语言学家、心理学家、神经学家和语言病理学家组成的跨学科小组， 失语症领域的最新研究，包括理论，临床和康复方面， 语言障碍会议的主题范围很广，但几乎总是涵盖语言的所有方面 加工包括语音加工、词汇-语义加工、句法加工、正字法加工 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。在这项更新建议中，我们继续实施两项举措， 第一轮赠款非常成功，并推出了第三项倡议（“炉边谈话， 科学的公平”），继续建设年轻失语症研究人员的研究和培训水平。 我们继续我们的第一个倡议，涉及一个正式的指导计划，为年轻的调查人员进入 失语症研究领域。在这个项目中，来自跨学科的学生/博士后研究员 作为会议第一作者的背景人员与一位导师配对。这位导师将提供具体的 关于学员的演讲和对学员的研究和一般指导的反馈 学术生涯。在过去五年的赠款周期中，该计划收到了非常积极的反馈 为年轻的研究人员带来长期的利益。我们继续的第二项倡议将持续一小时 研讨会（失语症研究的新前沿），涵盖了最先进的背景和方法 方法学，这对失语症的研究有应用。鉴于其高度跨学科的性质， 失语症研究，这些研讨会将桥梁失语症研究人员和科学家之间的沟通 以及开发出研究大脑新方法的专家。第三个也是新的倡议将是一个 “炉边谈话在科学公平”，每年我们讨论科学公平的方面。我们的就职 2022年的会议开始了关于出版物代表性不足和引用不足的重要讨论 来自神经科学/神经学领域的妇女和少数民族。在未来五年内，我们将邀请编辑 期刊，不同资助小组的评审员，以鼓励关于如何减少显性和隐性的对话 在学术界的偏见，并鼓励科学领域的代表性不足的少数民族。 在过去的五年里，NIDCD计划已经改变了会议的结构和能量， 并建立了一个程序，以确保一个管道的高度有才华和训练有素的科学家追求一个 研究或临床职业，在失语症的跨学科研究方面具有坚实的基础。此续订 应用继续这一重要工作。
