A growing literature is pointing towards the importance of white matter tracts in
understanding the neural mechanisms of language processing, and determining the nature …

The aim of this study was to identify regional structural differences in the brains of native
speakers of a tonal language (Chinese) compared to nontonal (European) language …

The cortical regions specialized in speech–language exhibit a left–right asymmetry, eg, a
larger cortical size in the left auditory cortex and Wernicke's area. The possibility of …

Does the brain of a bilingual process language differently from that of a monolingual? We
compared how bilinguals and monolinguals recruit classic language brain areas in …

FUNCTIONAL magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to compare the cerebral
organization during sentence processing in English and in American sign language (ASL) …

Lateralization of language to the left hemisphere is considered a key aspect of human brain
organization. We used diffusion tensor MRI to perform in vivo virtual dissection of language …

The corpus callosum is the largest commissural white matter pathway that connects the
hemispheres of the human brain. In this study, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was performed …

Functional imaging methods show differences in the pattern of cerebral activation
associated with the subject's native language (L1) compared with a second language (L2) …

In the present study, we explored how Age of Acquisition (AoA) of L2 affected brain
structures in bilingual individuals. Thirty-six native English speakers who were bilingual …

Abstract Language ability and handedness are likely to be associated with asymmetry of the
cerebral cortex (grey matter) and connectivity (white matter). Grey matter asymmetry, most …
