In 1989 the Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) Research Unit was established at the University of Stirling. It is an interdiciplinary team involving speech and language therapists, psychologists, sociologists and linguists. Although our work was originally concerned with the communication of people with cerebral palsy, we are now involved with people with different disabilities, both congenital and acquired. Current research is being carried out in the areas of Dementia and Family Carers, and Communication within couples when one of the couple is aphasic.
