Cone and graduate professor emerita at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and visiting research professor at Research Center for Ageing, Language and Care at Tongji University. Her areas of interest include narrative, pragmatics and stance in discourse, more recently incorporating socio-historical approaches to medical discourse and Alzheimer's speech, lifespan language, online discourse, and digital corpora of speech. Prof. Boyd Davis is well-known for her construction of corpora of language and aging. The Carolinas Conversations Corpus probably began in 1996, as Boyd H. Davis confessed in her first edited collection of discussions of dementia discourse (2005), when her mother did not recognize her. She had already begun collecting conversations as a way to represent the wide variety of languages, cultures and dialects in her region of the US. Now she refocused them to senior living and memory care facilities to better understand and preserve examples of the language of older adults with cognitive impairments. The purpose of the Corpus is to complement clinical analyses and make it possible for researchers from different disciplines and paradigms to advance their understanding of language, aging, and dementia and more easily develop collaborations and communicative interventions for caregivers and care recipients. Roughly 800 anonymized conversations, predominantly audio and transcript, are password-protected behind two firewalls at the Medical University of South Carolina: https://carolinaconversations.musc.edu/ccc/about/ NCBI: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/myncbi/boyd.davis.1/bibliography/48091808/public/?sort=date&direction=descending
