About the Parkinson’s conversation study

This Parkinson’s conversation study is being conducted by the Speech Pathology Department within the School of Allied Health, Human Services and Sport at La Trobe University. The research team is interested in understanding what matters most to people when they communicate and what makes conversation easier or harder.

Who can join

Participants will have the chance to talk about their own experiences in a one‑on‑one interview with Helen Crouch, a speech pathologist and researcher. Interviews can be held online or in person at a time that suits you. The research team hopes that hearing directly from people living with Parkinson’s will help shape future support and improve how conversation challenges are recognised and understood.
