A new study on speech disorders in ataxias is recruiting participants

Do you have a diagnosis of ataxia, and experience speech disorders? If so, you could help researchers in a study investigating speech disorders across various ataxia types. This is an online study and does not require travel. The study assesses speech and thinking skills through some tasks, and a short interview about how your speech affects your daily life.

You can take part in this study if you have a confirmed diagnosis of one of the following conditions in addition to a speech disorder:

-Cerebellar Ataxia, Neuropathy and Vestibular Areflexia Syndrome (CANVAS)

-Spastic Paraplegia Type 7 (SPG-7)

-Gluten Ataxia

-Paraneoplastic Ataxia

To take part in this study, contact Suleyman Kahraman on suleyman.kahraman@strath.ac.uk.
