Dear ANCDS Members,

The ANCDS Membership Committee is seeking volunteer mentors for our 2024 Student Fellowship Award winners.  ANCDS offers this fellowship opportunity for full-time speech-language pathology Master’s and doctoral level students or those specializing in clinical neurologically-based communication disorders and sciences.  This year, the ANCDS Membership Committee awarded 12 fellowships to applicants with a variety of research and clinical interests.

Fellowship awardees receive complimentary conference registration and ANCDS membership for one calendar year.  As a result, many of the selected students will be first-time conference attendees.  The theme for this year’s Annual Scientific Meeting is “Culturally Responsive Interventions in Neurogenic Communication Disorders".  The meeting will be held virtually during synchronous meetings spread over three evenings in November, and student fellowship winners and mentors will be announced during the Business Meeting on Wednesday, November 13.  To view the schedule and presentations, click here.  We look forward to connecting virtually with everyone this year.

Please let me know if you have any questions or are interested in serving as a mentor by emailing me at [email protected].

Thank you,
Miriam Carroll-Alfano, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, CBIS
Chair, ANCDS Membership Committee
