June 2026
We are currently recruiting stroke survivors with aphasia for a 12- week exercise study starting at the end of July 2026
Who can Join?
You can take part if you:
• had a stroke and now have aphasia (language problems)
• had your last stroke 6 or more months ago
• spoke English before your stroke
• can walk on your own (using a single-point cane is OK)
• can safely do regular exercise
Goal
The goal of this study is to learn how different kinds of exercise can help people with post-stroke aphasia improve their fitness, motor, cognitive, and language abilities.
The study includes testing before and after the exercise program, and group exercise classes three times a week for 12 weeks. Some sessions will be in person, and some will be on Zoom.
