CURRENT RESEARCH

1. Social Participation in Aphasia

The Aphasia. Behavior. Communication (ABC) Research Lab at Louisiana State University is seeking persons with aphasia to participate in an approximately 20-minute survey. This survey aims to understand the perspectives of people with aphasia regarding their social involvement and inclusion in daily activities. This information can contribute to the development of more socially focused
assessments for persons with aphasia and facilitate the development of therapy and treatment
programs that prioritize social participation.
The link to the survey is: http://tinyurl.com/2nh528a4
If you have any questions about the survey, please feel free to reach out to one of the research
investigators: Bijoyaa Mohapatra (bmohap@lsu.edu) or Kayla Williams (kwil476@lsu.edu).

 

2. fNIRS and Aphasia

Seeking volunteers (both Aphasia and Healthy Controls) to participate in a research project conducted by the Aphasia.Behavior.Communication research lab that involves assessing cognitive control and brain processes using a neuroimaging technology called the functional near infrared spectroscopy. For more information about the project or to schedule an in-person appointment please contact the investigators: Biraj Bhattarai (bbhatt6@lsu.edu) or Bijoyaa Mohapatra (bmohap@lsu.edu). 

3. Executive functioning, Multimodal communication, & Discourse Analysis in Aphasia
