Dear colleagues,
I am very pleased to invite you to the 14th International Aphasia Rehabilitation Conference to be held in Montreal, Canada, from June 27th to 29th, 2010 at Le Westin Montréal.
The International Aphasia Rehabilitation Conference is based on a tradition of excellence, and brings together researchers and clinical specialists in Speech-Language Pathology, Linguistics, Neuropsychology, and Rehabilitation Medicine dedicated to aphasia rehabilitation. The conference is an international forum that gives both researchers and clinical practitioners an excellent opportunity to meet colleagues from other countries and discuss their recent work in aphasiology. It also is an ideal venue to promote social awareness of aphasia and develop approaches to support people with aphasia.
Montreal, the conference site, is a beautiful city in the province of Quebec, Canada. Montreal is a vibrant, modern North American city with a special French flavour. It is a city of impressive cultural venues, multilingual population, and universities, with an international reputation in the neurosciences and communication sciences and disorders, particularly in aphasia.
We look forward to welcoming you to Montreal for the 14th International Aphasia Rehabilitation Conference.
Ana Inés Ansaldo, Ph.D.
Chair, Organising Committee
