Numerous studies have been devoted to neural mechanisms of a variety of linguistic tasks
(eg speech comprehension and production). To date, however, whether and how the neural …

The clinical profiles of individuals with post-stroke aphasia demonstrate considerable
variation in the presentation of symptoms. Recent aphasiological studies have attempted to …

Language processing relies on a widespread network of brain regions. Univariate post-
stroke lesion-behavior mapping is a particularly potent method to study brain–language …

Disturbances of semantic and phonemic fluency are common after brain damage, as a
