How does anxiety shape childhood stuttering?

PhD researcher Zhixing Yang from @ucl explores this question through a social lens — listening beyond speech.

🏆 Her work earned her a Special Commendation from @stammeringchildren at the Oxford Stuttering & Cluttering Research Conference.

Just Listen — a student-led project raising awareness of stammering in schools, launching #ISAD2025!

Born from one student’s courage to speak up, it brings together Holderness Academy, Humber NHS & Siobhan Ward.

🗣️ “I felt heard & seen for my differences.” – Laila
