Research Interests: Emma Caird specializes in simulation-based clinical education for speech-language pathologists, particularly for adult communication and swallowing disorders. Her projects explore substituting clinical placement time with simulation, cost analyses of training models, and frameworks for quality simulation programs.
Publication Trends: Her recent articles (2020–2023) emphasize simulation-based learning's validity in speech pathology training, including randomized controlled trials, cost analyses, and educational frameworks. Earlier work (2010) focused on patient-centered goal setting in subacute rehabilitation.
Labs & Teams: Emma collaborates with the Queensland Aphasia Research Centre and multidisciplinary teams across Australia and Japan on simulation studies. Her co-authors include prominent researchers like Anne E. Hill and Elizabeth C. Ward.
