Talk the Walk: Co-emergence and Co-dependence of Movement and Language

Presented by: Regina T. Harbourne, PhD

Pediatric physical and speech therapists provide skilled expertise as well as engage in interdisciplinary activity. However, neuroscience reveals that our division may be artificial, with co-dependency of systems during development. This talk will focus on motor, cognitive and language systems in development, how these systems develop in concert, and how codependence can improve intervention.
