The Talking DLD Podcast The DLD Project

Did you know that it takes approximately 17 years for research to reach practice (Balas & Boren, 2000)? We call this the research-to-practice gap. The gap means that evidence-based practices do not get used as much as they should, and people with developmental language disorder (DLD) do not benefit from them. In this episode of The Talking DLD Podcast, we're joined by Dr. Rouzana Komesidou, an implementation scientist, consultant, and the founder of Mosinian Research & Consultancy, located in Cyprus to explore all things implementation science.

Did you know that Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) can also co-occur with other disorders? Studies of children with DLD suggest some disorders co-occur more often. These include emotional problems, dyslexia and ADHD. “Comorbidity” refers to the presence of two or more disorders in the same person. These disorders can occur individually or link together. It takes a team of specialists to figure out if a person has DLD by itself or has additional disorders. In this episode of The Talking DLD Podcast, we’re talking with Professor Sean M. Redmond about DLD & ADHD.
