Functional recovery in response to a brain lesion, such as a stroke, can even occur years
after the incident and may be accelerated by effective rehabilitation strategies. In eleven …

The complex process of cortical reorganization of language-related brain regions during
recovery from aphasia and the effects of therapeutic interventions on brain systems are …

The brain processes of language recovery after stroke are poorly understood, partly
because past research did not allow to differentiate the effects of spontaneous restitution …

The loss and recovery of language functions are still incompletely understood. This
longitudinal functional MRI study investigated the neural mechanisms underlying language …

Background The relationship between functional recovery after brain injury and concomitant
neuroplastic changes is emphasized in recent research. In the present study we aimed to …

Background. The neural correlates of training-induced improvements of cognitive functions
after brain damage remain still scarcely understood. In the specific case of aphasia …

Abstract Language is not a single function, but instead results from interactions between
neural representations and computations that can be damaged independently of each other …

Six participants with chronic aphasia secondary to first-ever ischemic stroke within the
middle cerebral artery (MCA) distribution of the left hemisphere and six neurologically intact …

Background and Purpose—The goal of this study was to develop a functional MRI (fMRI)
paradigm robust and reproducible enough in healthy subjects to be adapted for a follow-up …

Previous functional imaging studies of chronic stroke patients with aphasia suggest that
recovery of language occurs in a pre-existing, bilateral network with an upregulation of …
