Previous studies have suggested that recovery or compensation of language function after a
lesion in the left hemisphere may depend on mechanisms in the right hemisphere. However …

During speech comprehension the auditory association cortex in the superior temporal
cortex is involved in perceptual analysis of the speech signal, whereas the basal language …

The neural mechanisms underlying recovery of language after left hemisphere stroke
remain elusive. Although older evidence suggested that right hemisphere language …

Converging evidence from neuroimaging studies and computational modelling suggests an
organization of language in a dual dorsal–ventral brain network: a dorsal stream connects …

Background: Recovery from stroke-induced aphasia is typically protracted and involves
complex functional reorganization. The relative contributions of the lesioned and non …

Brain plasticity has often been quoted as a reason for the more favorable outcome in
childhood stroke compared to adult stroke. We investigated the relationship between …

We compared brain structure and function in two subgroups of 21 stroke patients with either
moderate or severe chronic speech comprehension impairment. Both groups had damage …

Language is considered to be one of the most lateralized human brain functions. Left
hemisphere dominance for language has been consistently confirmed in clinical and …

It is debated how language and praxis are co-represented in the left hemisphere (LH). As
voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping in LH stroke patients with aphasia and/or apraxia …

The importance of the left inferior pre-frontal cortex (LIPC) for speech production was first
popularized by Paul Broca, providing a cornerstone of behavioral neurology and laying the …
