"Natasha Abner, an associate professor at the University of Michigan, runs the Sign Language & Multi-Modal Communication Lab and the Language Across Modalities discussion group. Language Across Modalities is beginning this semester on Friday, September 11th at 10:00 AM and then every other Friday (biweekly). If you are interested in joining in-person or via Zoom, below is an excerpt from Dr. Abner describing the discussion group:

"This is our annual invitation to join the Language Across Modalities, the bi-weeky research and discussion group and listserv that cover various linguistic topics related to sign languages, spoken languages, gesture, disability etc. We often alternate between discussing peer-reviewed research and public-facing media related to the aforementioned topics, and host bigger events like last year's Against Erasure: Preserving Palestinian Sign Language event with deaf Palestinians. In the summers, we also often host chat times aimed at building up our ASL skills.

If you would like to be put on that listserv for announcements, email Katie at at [email protected] and we can add you on MCommunity."

Throughout the summer, the SONiC Lab has been researching on wheels! The Mobile Lab allows for more data collection and some amazing opportunities to work with community partners all over the state of Michigan. The RV visits homes, hospitals, and Parkinson Disease community groups to meet with participants. The Mobile Lab is on loan to the SONiC Lab thanks to the MSU Developmental Speech Laboratory (PI: Dr. Bridget Walsh) and has received the seal of approval from junior SONiC Lab member, Baby Enzo.

We are excited to celebrate Amir Hossein Rasoli Jokar, a third-year PhD candidate in Communicative Sciences and Disorders at Michigan State University, working with Dr. J. Scott Yaruss, on the acceptance of two first-author publications in ASHA journals.

His manuscript, Social-Emotional Development of Young Children Who Stutter: An Overview of Empirical Studies, has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. His manuscript, How Do Iranian Speech-Language Pathologists Represent Stuttering on Instagram: A Mixed-Methods Study, has also been accepted for publication in Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups.

These accomplishments reflect Amir’s growing scholarly contributions to stuttering research, including work on social-emotional development, public representations of stuttering, and clinical implications for the field. Congratulations, Amir, and congratulations to Dr. Yaruss and all collaborators on this exciting achievement.
