Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD) Associate Professor Nathan Maxfield, PhD, CCC-SLP, recently gave an invited talk at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital (JHACH). Maxfield, who is also the principal investigator of the Bulls Stuttering Lab, updated speech-language pathologists working in the JHACH system about emerging trends in the evaluation and treatment of early childhood stuttering.
The presentation was part of JHACH's celebration of National Speech-Language-Hearing Month. Each May, National Speech-Language-Hearing Month provides an opportunity to raise awareness about communication disorders and the role of speech-language pathologists and audiologists in providing life-altering treatment.
Maxfield will return to JHACH in November to present a second talk on emerging trends in evaluating and treating school-age children who stutter.
