These luminaries will illuminate a diverse spectrum of topics within the realms of Speech-Language Pathology.

The SLPIP is meticulously curated to cater to the intellectual aspirations of speech-language pathologists seeking to deepen their scholarly engagement. The opportunity to interact with and learn from such an eminent assembly of international scholars is unparalleled. I am confident that the SLPIP will catalyze intellectual growth and a rekindling of passion for our captivating field.

Before we commence our intellectual odyssey, I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to the esteemed professors who have graciously consented to impart their wisdom.
