Her research interests center on advancing naturalistic and functional treatment approaches for aphasia, with a particular interest in conversation-based and group interventions. She is dedicated to understanding how aphasia impacts social participation and everyday functioning, and she aims to investigate outcomes that extend beyond core language impairment, including behavioral and neural markers of recovery. Informed by her clinical experience, Maddy hopes to support the translation of research into meaningful, evidence-based interventions that improve quality of life for individuals with aphasia and their families.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Research Interests<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\">Functional treatment approaches for aphasia<\/li>\n<li>Social participation and quality of life outcomes<\/li>\n<li>Behavioral and neural mechanisms of treatment-induced recovery<\/li>\n<li>Translational clinical research and patient-centered research<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Current Project(s)<br \/>\n<\/strong><span>National Aphasia Association CORE Impact <a href=\"https:\/\/staging.aphasia.org\/core-impact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/staging.aphasia.org\/core-impact\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Links<br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/madelinedunne.carrd.co\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Personal Website<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/profile\/Madeline-Dunne?ev=hdr_xprf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Research Gate<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?hl=en&amp;user=vquUcS0AAAAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google Scholar<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1140-6340\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ORCID<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/madelinedunne.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bluesky<\/a><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"bu_collapsible_container \" aria-live=\"polite\" data-customize-animation=\"false\"><h4 class=\"bu_collapsible\" aria-expanded=\"false\"tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\">Peer-Reviewed Publications<\/h4><div class=\"bu_collapsible_section\" style=\"display: none;\"><\/p>\n<p><span><strong>Dunne, M.<\/strong>, Hoover, E., &amp; DeDe, G.
