A/Prof Sarah Wallace

A/Prof Sarah Wallace is a two-time NHMRC Emerging Leadership Fellow and Speech Pathologist from the University of Queensland. Her research interests include communication disability in ageing and enabling and measuring meaningful change in post-stroke aphasia. Sarah uses qualitative and participatory methods to understand the lived experience of communication disability. She works with people with lived experience, clinicians, and community members to co-produce interventions, systems, and standards that improve quality of care and outcomes. A key theme within her research is the co-development of technology-enhanced interventions to support self-management, promote equitable access to information and services, and empower people with aphasia.
