Over the past decade, our understanding of how the brain functions in children who stutter has advanced significantly. Although children who stutter may not have language disorders, we often see differences in the ways they process language compared to children who do not stutter. In this session, Amanda Hampton Wray, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Assistant Professor of Communication Science & Disorders at University of Pittsburgh, discusses recent findings related to brain functions for language in stuttering. She discusses how these findings advance our understanding of the nature of stuttering and potential clinical implications.
