Over the last few years there is some study underway on the practice of oral trials in hospitals, but as far as I know nothing yet on their use in the community. So I’m hoping to generate something. Two recent articles done in the UK focus on adult practice but don’t explicitly say so…

Really enjoyed this week’s ’Foundations of neurology’ course at the Institute of neurology @uclqsion.bsky.social ! I learnt a lot and met some lovely people. I’d recommend it to other early career #bskyspeechies

Hi Cheryl, I’m in my final year of SLT study at age 60 so from where I’m standing, you are a whippersnapper 😁 Don’t underestimate the great insights that your life experience gives you and the enormous range of settings you could find work in. You’re so nearly there now, please don’t lose heart ❤️ ❤️
