Currently more than 1.5 billion people worldwide live with hearing loss. For some of these people, hearing aids may improve their hearing, so that they can still listen, communicate, and participate more fully in daily activities. But hearing aids aren't devices that you can just purchase online or over-the-counter, and expect miraculous results. Audiologist Ngiow Jen Sen joins us to explain the various hearing aids available, and why personalised adjustment is important. Find a registered audiologist from the Malaysian Association of Speech-Language and Hearing, or the Malaysian National Society of Audiologists, and check if the hearing aid you purchased is a registered medical device on the Medical Device Authority Register. You can also apply for financial assistance for hearing aids from MARCHES.Image credit: Shutterstock

Today, I'm excited to discuss the profound impact of early language and speech experiences on cognitive and academic skills, specifically reading skills. Joining us is a seasoned expert in the field, Stacy Payne, a speech-language pathologist and the founder of Bright Beginnings Pediatric Services. Stacy shares her insights on the importance of creating a language-rich environment for children from an early age. She explains how these early interactions, much more than simple bedtime stories, are integral to cognitive development. Through everyday activities and conversations, parents and caregivers can significantly influence a child's language acquisition and communication skills. We also explore the complexity of the developing brain and how language and communication skills evolve throughout childhood. Stacy highlights the importance of repetition in creating new neural pathways and how incorporating language-building strategies into daily routines, like grocery shopping, can make a huge difference. For those concerned about missing critical language milestones in early childhood, Stacy offers reassurance that the brain can learn new skills and adapt at any age. She also shares exciting opportunities to maximize learning during the summer months, including intensive skill-building camps provided by Bright Beginnings Pediatric Services. This is definitely a conversation you don't want to miss! Show Notes: [2:33] - Speech and language therapy addresses more than just articulation. [3:47] - Stacy explains that speech and language pathology includes everything “above the waist.” [5:01] - It is anything that can get in the way of a person communicating. [7:15] - Language doesn't just include verbal communication. The brain is very complex and we have a lot of modalities to communicate. [8:36] - Stacy explains how language and communication develop in an infant's developing brain. [12:17] - We need to be able to provide a language-rich environment for our developing children. [13:52] - There are so many opportunities in simple day-to-day interactions to integrate language development strategies. [15:12] - The brain requires repetition to develop a new skill and create a new neural pathway. [16:51] - Build language into your day. Think about the countless opportunities at the grocery store. [19:04] - Stacy describes some of the important considerations if a child is growing up in a household of multiple languages. [22:28] - It is important to continue these conversations throughout the child's life, not just in the early years. [24:39] - Talking through things is also a form of modeling. These are all teaching and learning moments. [26:39] - A lot of times, people don't have the words to express themselves. [28:08] - After articulation, pay attention to reading and writing. [31:30] - Sometimes we forget about the things that we can pull into language development as we work on goals and articulation. [33:35] - Stacy discusses cognitive training that speech-language pathologists go through that are typically unexpected by most people. [35:06] - If something is missed in childhood, it's not forever. The brain can still learn new things and how to do things in new ways. [41:26] - We can maximize the summer months to work intensively on these skills. Stacy shares the summer camps available.

Speech and language development can raise many questions for parents trying to figure out if their child is reaching milestones or if they may need extra support with their speech. This can cause parents a lot of worry and stress as they try to determine what is considered typical at different ages. Speech-Language pathologist Melissa Minney is joining me today to discuss common speech concerns parents have. Melissa Minney is a speech-language pathologist, mommy of 3, and the founder of Raising Little Talkers.

Nothing is wrong. The brain is just more vulnerable.The aspects of stuttering that Dr. Daniels works on are stigma, acceptance, and advocacy.There are common microaggressions where people who stutter feel they need to defend themselves.Dr. Daniels tells his story of stuttering and what brought him to do his incredible work.Hiding and concealing were a big part of his life.The biggest takeaway from a child to an adult, it's going to be ok.Just having conversations about stuttering is so essential to help break down the stigmas around stuttering.Resources:Learn more about Dr. Derek Daniels and resource for stutteringDerek E.

Today Im sitting down with Teresa Girolamo, Ph.D., she is an autistic language in autism researcher and assistant professor in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences at San Diego State University. As director of the Brain, Environment, and Language Lab, she works with racially and ethnically minoritized autistic individuals with language impairment. This population is underserved in research, hindering our ability to develop supports to meet their needs. Current projects include how social determinants of health plus language ability shape life outcomes and how to better understand strengths in language ability in this population. The long-term goal of this work is to translate this knowledge into community-based supports for individuals to meet their self-identified goals.

Huberman Lab Podcast Notes Key Takeaways The human brain is shaped differently depending on sounds you are exposed to in utero and throughout the first years of brain developmentIt's probably best to skip the white noise machine to help your babies sleep – our brain is structured to hear environmental noises; constant white noise exposure may lead to delaysWhether you are right-handed or left-handed is strongly genetically determinedThe earlier, more intense, and longer you can have exposure to a second language – the better; human interaction allows for greater specialization of the languageMemory is widely distributed across the brain which is good because even in the event of head injury or illness requiring surgery, memory is generally preservedNew technologies are being studied to give paralyzed and nonverbal patients a chance to communicate again through the use of electrodes connected from the brain to a computer which uses AI to translateRead the full notes @ podcastnotes.orgMy guest is Eddie Chang, MD, a neurosurgeon and professor of neurological surgery at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and the co-director of the Center for Neural Engineering & Prostheses. We discuss the brain mechanisms underlying speech, language learning and comprehension, communicating human emotion with words and hand gestures, bilingualism and language disorders, such as stuttering. Dr. Chang also explains his work developing and applying state-of-the-art technology to decode speech and using that information and artificial intelligence (AI) to successfully restore communication to patients who have suffered paralyzing injuries or “locked in syndrome.” We also discuss his work treating patients with epilepsy. Finally, we consider the future: how modern neuroscience is overturning textbook medical books, the impact of digital technology such as smartphones on language and the future of natural and computer-assisted human communication.

Today we are continuing the conversation about language skills and development, but this time we're discussing how speech-language therapy helps students with dyslexia. In previous episodes we've talked about speech and language development and we've talked about dyslexia, but now we combine the two because they are certainly linked. My guest today is Nancy Rose Steinbock, an absolute expert in the field of language and literacy disorders. In our conversation today, Nancy talks in length about the connection between language development and literacy and the unfortunate truth that some teachers and educators are not equipped or prepared to effectively support students who are struggling. Nancy gives fantastic tips on what to look for in the early years before school begins for a child, even when pediatricians and caregivers are saying “wait and see”.  All this and more in this conversation today with Nancy Steinbock.   Show Notes: [3:01] - We often talk about language development and literacy separately, but they are closely linked. [4:36] - The key to mitigating language disorders is early identification and intervention. [5:49] - Nancy describes research that demonstrates what to look for in early stages of language development. [7:50] - While being told to “wait and see”, there are things we can look for before professional intervention. [9:02] - Non-verbal communication is a form of language. [11:30] - We need to be careful about discerning the difference between a child who has a language development disability and one who is progressing differently. [13:06] - A parent's concern should always be considered as they know their child better than anyone. Don't always buy into the “wait and see” approach. [14:13] - There are times that language development plateaus and makes it appear that some are catching up when there is still an issue. [17:11] - Many children miss out on early intervention due to the lack of understanding of the link between language and literacy. [19:35] - One of the mistakes we've made in teacher education is that we're not training teachers in the last decade in language. [21:18] - Nancy shares the problems she ran into when working with students and teachers virtually. [24:03] - Nancy demonstrates speech to print vs. print to speech. [26:30] - Language encompasses reading, writing, and speaking and these are developing simultaneously. [28:46] - Because language has been a struggle, children who have not had support become less attuned to listening and experience learned helplessness. [31:08] - Nancy describes some of the other behaviors that develop when a student has not received the help they need. [32:51] - This is not a quick process. This could take years. [34:28] - Asking indirect questions when a student is engaged is much more effective. [36:01] - It is important for students to engage with a story. [37:40] - Connect with Nancy to learn more.   About Our Guest: As a speech language pathologist, Nancy Rose Steinbock, M.A., CCC-SLP is an expert in the field of language and literacy disorders. Over 40 years' experience in the field and engagement with experts in the fields of language development and disorders have developed her expertise in diagnosing and treating spoken and written language skills.   She was fortunate to complete four years of doctoral study at City University of New York, CUNY, when children identified as ‘learning disabled' were seen to be ‘language disabled.' Connections between early childhood speech-language development and academic under-achievement were studied across disciplines in the program.   Knowing that prevention is key to mitigating language disorders, Nancy has created numerous programs and strategies to work with teachers and students who are at risk for developing these disorders. Focusing on bilingual language acquisition and interventionist methods, she founded Inglese Dinamico, an innovative bilingual education project in Venice, Italy, where she provided extensive teacher-training in speech and language development disorders for nearly 15 years. Her 'intervention methodology' for EL teaching has been carried over into her EL teaching for adults in her practice located on Martha's Vineyard in Massachusetts.   Connect with Nancy Steinbock: ChildNEXUS Provider Profile MV Language Website   Links and Related Resources: Episode 102: Everyday Activities That Help Build Language Skills with Stefanie Trenholme, MS, CCC-SLP Dyslexia Article 6 Quick Questions for Parents Concerned About Dyslexia Episode 21: What You Know and Don't Know About Dyslexia with Dr. Lauren McClenney Rosenstein Get Reading Support Join our email list so that you can receive information about upcoming webinars - ChildNEXUS.com The Diverse Thinking Different Learning podcast is intended for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical or legal advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

This week's guest is Valeria Gary.Have you ever wondered about the impacts on phonation for those who suffer from Parkinson's Disease (PD)? In this episode, we speak with Valeria Gary who is a Health Coach and a Speech Language pathologist working within the healthcare industry. In 2015, Valeria transitioned her career as an SLP, to providing therapy to patients with PD, and works as a volunteer for Parkinson's Foundation in Georgia and as the owner of Total Body Cognition and Southeast Parkinson's Speech Services.Currently, there are approximately 10 million people worldwide suffering from PD and in our conversation, Valeria explains that PD is a neurodegenerative disease, which means that it impacts the brain and the patient gradually worsens over time. She tells us that at this time, there are no known causes or cures for PD, however, with the correct medications and support, patients can maintain a good quality of life.PD not only impacts the body but Valeria talks about the many ways it can affect phonation, such as patients experiencing reduced volume, monotone pitch and breathiness or hoarseness in the voice. She stresses that early intervention is most beneficial for the patient and it is easier to maintain function than to regain some. Valeria describes the clinical work she does with her patients, demonstrates some of the vocal exercises she uses along with their desired outcomes and how we as a voice community can create inclusive spaces for PD patients to enjoy and reap the benefits of singing. This is an informative and important episode for all of us to learn more about this terrible disease.In this episode04:06 — Valeria Gray's Health Background 06:56 — Specializing in Parkinson's Disease 08:56 — Michael J.

In this episode, we speak with Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist Cari Ebert about the importance of play and relational connections in supporting a child's language development. Cari shares her own personal experiences that have shaped her perspective and therapeutic style, discusses the science-based importance of play on children's brain development, and gives specific strategies parents, educators and caregivers can use to incorporate play into their daily activities. Cari also highlights ways to be inclusive and supportive of neurodivergent children's play and development.  Cari Ebert, M.S., CCC-SLP is a Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist in private practice in the Kansas City, Missouri area where she has found her niche in working with young children ages birth-to-five and their families.  Cari firmly believes that early intervention is the key to future success, and she has dedicated her professional career to helping young children achieve their maximum potential by partnering with parents and caregivers throughout the therapy process. Cari is a therapist, a consultant and a nationally recognized speaker.  Links: Cari Ebert's Website Follow Cari on Instagram The Parish School Website Support the show

My guest this episode is Dr. Erich Jarvis, PhD—Professor and the Head of the Laboratory of Neurogenetics of Language at Rockefeller University and Investigator with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI). Dr. Jarvis' research spans the molecular and genetic mechanisms of vocal communication, comparative genomics of speech and language across species and the relationship between speech, language and movement. We discuss the unique ability of humans (and certain animal species) to learn and communicate using complex language, including verbal speech production and the ability to interpret both written and spoken language. We also discuss the connections between language, singing and dance and why song may have evolved before language. Dr. Jarvis also explains some of the underlying biological and genetic components of stutter/speech disorders, non-verbal communication, why it's easiest to learn a language as a child and how individuals can learn multiple languages at any age. This episode ought to be of interest to everyone interested in the origins of human speech, language, music and culture and how newer technology, such as social media and texting, change our brains.  Thank you to our sponsors AG1 (Athletic Greens): https://athleticgreens.com/huberman InsideTracker: https://insidetracker.com/huberman ROKA: https://roka.com/huberman LMNT: https://drinklmnt.com/huberman Supplements from Momentous https://www.livemomentous.com/huberman For the full show notes, visit hubermanlab.com Timestamps (00:00:00) Dr. Erich Jarvis & Vocal Communication (00:03:43) Momentous Supplements  (00:04:36) InsideTracker, ROKA, LMNT  (00:08:01) Speech vs. Language, Is There a Difference?   (00:10:55) Animal Communication, Hand Gestures & Language  (00:15:25) Vocalization & Innate Language, Evolution of Modern Language     (00:21:10) Humans & Songbirds, Critical Periods, Genetics, Speech Disorders  (00:27:11) Innate Predisposition to Learn Language, Cultural Hybridization (00:31:34) Genes for Speech & Language (00:35:49) Learning New or Multiple Languages, Critical Periods, Phonemes  (00:41:39) AG1 (Athletic Greens)  (00:42:52) Semantic vs. Effective Communication, Emotion, Singing (00:47:32) Singing, Link Between Dancing & Vocal Learning  (00:52:55) Motor Theory of Vocal Learning, Dance  (00:55:03) Music & Dance, Emotional Bonding, Genetic Predispositions (01:04:11) Facial Expressions & Language, Innate Expressions (01:09:35) Reading & Writing  (01:15:13) Writing by Hand vs. Typing, Thoughts & Writing (01:20:58) Stutter, Neurogenetics, Overcome Stutter, Conversations (01:26:58) Modern Language Evolution: Texting, Social Media & the Future (01:36:26) Movement: The Link to Cognitive Growth  (01:40:21) Comparative Genomics, Earth Biogenome Project, Genome Ark, Conservation (01:48:24) Evolution of Skin & Fur Color (01:51:22) Dr. Erich Jarvis, Zero-Cost Support, YouTube Feedback, Spotify & Apple Reviews, Momentous Supplements, AG1 (Athletic Greens), Instagram, Twitter Neural Network Newsletter, Huberman Lab Clips Title Card Photo Credit: Mike Blabac Disclaimer

#59: In this episode, we are chatting with the Speech Sisters, Brooke and Bridget on ALL things speech pathology. This episode is one of my favorites to date and it is filled with so much helpful and informative information you don't want to miss. Speech Sisters are one of my favorite follows on Instagram too.
