Conference on Brain-based Communication Disorders
Fundación Querer. Miami Dade College’s (MDC) InterAmerican Campus (http://www.mdc.edu/iac/campus-information/) and its School of Education will host the Love, Grow, Learn Conference, (https://news.mdc.edu/press_release/mdcs-interamerican-campus-to-host-major-conference-on-brain-based-communication-disorders/) discussions on brain-based language disorders and educational methods to address them effectively. Presented in collaboration with Fundación Querer, a nonprofit that brings together professionals from scientific, academic and medical communities to improve the lives of children diagnosed with language-related disorders, the conference will take place from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 27, at the InterAmerican Campus. Working media is welcome. Advances in brain research open the path to new ways of diagnosing disorders that affect language and communication and better interventions for educating children with those diagnoses. While neurologists often spearhead research on the early diagnosis of brain-based disorders, they seldom meet with educators to share advancements in the field. This conference will create a forum for professionals from scientific and medical communities to share insights from their research with educators in order improve the outcomes for children diagnosed with language-related disorders.
