Conversation Therapy Research Group

The Conversation Therapy Research Group (CTRG) held a one day meeting at the unit on May 12th at the Bristol Speech and Language Therapy research Unit.

The group meets regularly (usually on Skype) to share ideas and collaborate on research which aims to enable conversation assessment and therapy to become a clinical reality for speech and language therapists. What a treat to meet up face-to-face!
