President's Message

Hello ANCDS Members,

Greetings to each of you!  As I reflect on the past year and think about 2022 and beyond, I am grateful for the dedication and efforts of everyone in this academy, and especially the work of the Executive Board, Committee Chairs, and Committee members.  We have many accomplishments of which to be proud this year, and I note a few here.

The large task of revising the website was completed; the Ad Hoc Committee on Diversity and Inclusion met several times to begin its work, including providing an excellent presentation at the Annual Meeting; members of the Certification Board discussed the board certification process at several state and national meetings; the EBCR added two new writing groups, one focusing on pediatric motor speech disorders, and one on equity in clinical research in neurogenic disorders (this brings the number of writing groups to 8!); we piloted a process for committees to request short-term, project-based funding; several podcasts and webinars were published, and the ANCDS Residency Program that will initially pilot with the VA is nearing final approval.  During 2021 our membership numbers remained high, we are financially healthy, and we have a robust board certification program.

Recently, we had a stimulating and successful Executive Board and Committee Chair Retreat, from which many collaborative ideas emerged.  ANCDS continues to be a leader in our profession, and I hope each of you reading this newsletter will consider becoming part of this visionary, collaborative, and energetic group.  You can volunteer here, or after signing-in, navigating from the Welcome page to About Us (at the top of the page), dropping down to Committees to learn more about committees, then going to the bottom of the page and clicking on the Get Involved link, or by contacting me (2021 President) or Carole Roth (2022 President) or a committee chair.  We have come so far and have so far to go; we have great ideas and need great people to help make them a reality.

For the second year, our Annual Education & Scientific Meeting was held in a virtual format.  It was very well-attended and provided a wealth of valuable, relevant, and clinically important information.  If you did not attend the event, please watch the website for recordings of the presentations in our continuing webinar programming.  At the meeting, ANCDS presented the Honors of the Academy to Richard Peach, Ph.D., a longstanding member of ANCDS who has consistently contributed to its work.  You can read the text of the statement honoring Richard on our website.  Please join me in congratulating Richard on this honor.

Those of you who went to the ASHA Convention in person likely had a different experience from previous years when the convention halls and the ANCDS meeting rooms were filled with friends, colleagues, and people passionate about our profession.  I missed being able to gather in person this year and, as it is our custom, recognizing and welcoming the incoming ANCDS Executive Board members.  Two individuals are continuing in a second term, Deanna Britton, Ph.D., BC-ANCDS, as Secretary, and Ellyn Riley, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, as Member-at-Large. Lynn Maher, Ph.D., joins the Executive Board as President-elect and Jessica Galgano, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, as Member-at-Large.  Welcome to each of you.

At this time, I would like to thank you for the opportunity of serving this organization as President in 2021.  It has been an honor and a time of learning.  I hold in high esteem the dedication of our members and look forward to a continued bright future for ANCDS.  It is my privilege to officially pass the gavel, so to speak, as well as the next piece of this President’s Message, to my good friend and colleague, Carole Roth, Ph.D., BC-ANCDS, as she assumes leadership for 2022 –  ANCDS is in good hands. 

Sincerely,

Patterson Headshot

Incoming President's Message

Dear ANCDS Colleagues and Friends,

As the incoming President of ANCDS, I am fortunate to lead the Executive Board along a clearly delineated path that Janet Patterson, Kathleen Youse, and Presidents before them paved.  I want to take a moment to thank Janet for her leadership and mentoring over the past year.  Early in my grooming period for the ANCDS Presidency, Janet informed me that ANCDS committees, with the support of the Executive Board (EB), do the work of ANCDS.  As President, my job will be to enable and support the committees through the EB.  Over the past year, I saw for myself just how vibrant and effective ANCDS truly is!

I also want to acknowledge the mentoring that JoAnn Silkes, EBCR Committee Chair, provided me as the EB liaison to this committee.  I truly am inspired by the work of the writing groups who provide us with published clinical evidence supporting the questions we ask when serving individuals with neurogenic communication disorders.  You can learn more about the work of the writing groups through the recorded podcasts highlighting their various projects.  Also contributing to my mentoring was Yvonne Rogalski, Treasurer, who gave me a short course in interpreting the ANCDS finances and budget.

As incoming President, I look forward to working with an amazing Executive Board comprised of 9 inspiring professionals: Lynn Maher, President-Elect and liaison to the EBCR committee, Deanna Britton, Secretary, Yvonne Rogalski, Treasurer, Janet Patterson, Past-President and liaison to Nominations and the Diversity & Inclusion committee, Jessica Brown, liaison to the Membership committee, Jessica Galgano, liaison to the Professional Affairs committee, Ellyn Riley, liaison to the Education and Standards committee, Meghan Savage, liaison to the Communications committee, and Mary Purdy, Archivist.  Working in the background, keeping an eye on operational details of the association, is Sheryle Hazard, ANCDS Executive Director, and her staff.  With this team of incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated individuals, I am confident that 2022 will prove to be another exciting and productive year.

My goals include:

  • Encouraging ANCDS members to pursue certification. 
  • Transitioning back to an in-person annual scientific meeting.
  • Continuing to encourage student involvement by awarding Student Fellowships at the annual scientific meeting as well as other outreach projects.
  • Piloting of the ANCDS Residency Program with the VA.
  • Establishing a standing committee on diversity and inclusion.
  • Continuing to provide webinars for CEUs, podcasts, newsletters, and expanding the ANCDS social media footprint.
  • Supporting the work of the EBCR committee and writing committees in advancing evidence-based clinical research.
  • Maintaining a financially healthy organization.

We, the members of ANCDS, belong to this organization because we appreciate the collective wealth of knowledge, experience, dedication, and professionalism that ANCDS represents.  We enjoy virtual and in-person collaborations and friendships.  We enjoy the benefits of the annual scientific meeting, the free webinars available for CEUs, the team spirit discovered when participating on committees, and the challenge and reward of working toward board certification.  The opportunities are immense.  I would like to reiterate Janet’s invitation to each of you to encourage you to become more involved in ANCDS by joining a committee.  There is a place for you on a committee or a project.  If you are unsure where or how you would like to become involved, feel free to reach out to me (2022 President) or to Janet (Past President), or to Lynn Maher (President-Elect); or by navigating to the About Us page (see link above) on the ANCDS website then clicking on the Get Involved link to learn more about committees.

I begin my tenure as President feeling prepared, confident, and enthusiastic because I know ANCDS is an organization comprised of bright, inspiring, passionate individuals who have dedicated themselves to fulfilling the mission of the organization: “Enhancing the communicative lives of people affected by neurologic disorders.”  I look forward to working collaboratively with the EB, the committee chairs, and you, the members, in leading ANCDS into its bright future.  Thank you for this opportunity. 

Sincerely,

Roth Headshot

Terry Wertz Tribute

Dear ANCDS community,

It is with great sadness and a heart full of respect, that I share with you that Terry Wertz passed away recently.  Most of us in ANCDS can trace a professional connection with Terry – directly as a mentor or friend, or indirectly as a student or a clinician of his at the university or the VA.  Terry was President of ANCDS in 1995-1996.  His scholarly prowess, compassion for humanity, dedication to the study of aphasia, service to individuals living with aphasia, and wry sense of humor will long be remembered.  His dear friend, Jay Rosenbek, says it best in the tribute below.  Please join me, ANCDS family, in taking a moment to recall with joy a story about Terry that can guide you in your work as aphasiologists and in your life. 

Sincerely,

Janet Patterson, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
2021 ANCDS President 

Wertz

Terry Wertz (left)

 

Dear ANCDS community,

Terry Wertz died on December 2, 2021, from the complications of a subdural hematoma suffered in a fall while trimming his yew bushes.  He had aphasia at the end, and he was handling it with the style and grace characteristic of his approach to people and events during the whole of his rich, productive life.

If aphasiologists see mentoring as their most important contribution to students and younger colleagues, are careful to be helpful rather than hurtful in their peer review, are committed to following the data wherever they lead, and rank joy above correctness, Terry deserves much of the credit.

Thanks, old friend, for blazing the trail with data and for going just slowly enough so that the rest of us could keep you in sight.

Sincerely,

Jay Rosenbek, Ph.D.

Fellow Interview with Kristen Nunn

Nunn Headshot

Kristen Nunn, M.S., CCC-SLP

 

1. Why were you interested in the ANCDS conference fellow program?

I was interested in the ANCDS conference fellow program for the opportunity to be paired with an experienced researcher and clinician in the field of neurologic communication disorders and sciences.  I was also eager to meet with other individuals passionate about improving the management of neurologic communication disorders. 

2. What did you enjoy about the ANCDS conference fellow program?

There was so much that I enjoyed about the fellowship program.  In particular, I am grateful to have had the opportunity to meet with Dr. Hinckley.  Through discussions, Dr. Hinckley has helped me conceptualize my goals as a clinician and researcher.  She has encouraged me to think critically about how I can maximize the implementation and translation of my work into clinical practice.

ANCDS Board Certification Interview with Emily Cook

Emily Headshot

Emily Cook, BC-ANCDS

1. What motivated you to pursue ANCDS board certification?

Since I started my career, I have focused primarily on the assessment and management of cognitive-communication disorders in the pediatric and adult populations following acquired brain injury.  I pursued the ANCDS board certification to highlight my interest and skill in this area, reflect on my clinical decision-making while incorporating evidence-based practice, and become a certified member of an organization that is dedicated to better understanding this population that warrants highly individualized treatment.

2021 Student Fellowship Winners

The ANCDS Student Fellowship Program was developed in 2011.  Start-up funds for the original awards were contributed by Dr. Lawrence Shriberg, keynote speaker for the 2010 ANCDS Annual Scientific Meeting, who donated his honorarium back to the ANCDS.  Funds to sustain the program continue to be provided by the ANCDS Executive Board and through donations from ANCDS members.

The Academy of Neurologic Communication Disorders and Sciences (ANCDS) Membership Committee is pleased to announce that awards were offered this year for 14 students to participate in a Virtual Fellowship Program and attend the 2021 Virtual ANCDS Annual Scientific Meeting.  Meet the 2021 Student Fellows here.


New Member Feature: Ignatius Nip

Iggy Headshot

Ignatius Nip, Ph.D., CCC-SLP

How did you become interested in neurogenic communication disorders? 

When I was an SLP, I had a large number of children with cerebral palsy on my caseload.  The parents of these students really wanted to help their child improve and would investigate therapies, including alternative therapies with no evidence.  I would try to find scientific evidence or EBP guidelines to provide these families with more information about what I was doing as a clinician but I quickly realized there really wasn't a lot.  This was in the early 2000s, though, so I think things have improved, though we definitely have a long way to go too.

What is your area of interest related to neurogenic communication disorders? 

I am really interested in motor control in people with dysarthria, particularly children with cerebral palsy, though I've recently also started some work with adults with Parkinson's disease and deep-brain stimulation and people with oropharyngeal cancer.
