The legacy of research
Each year, the Martin Nunn Prize will recognise students whose research demonstrates excellence in exploring the 'whole of life' aspects of acquired communication difficulties. Through their work, these researchers help advance therapies, improve support systems, and ultimately enhance the quality of life for individuals and families affected by these conditions.
We are committed to celebrating these important contributions and sharing the insights gained from this valuable research with the broader community.
