The anatomy of language has been investigated with PET or fMRI for more than 20years.
Here I attempt to provide an overview of the brain areas associated with heard speech …

Studies of neurocognitive aging report altered patterns of brain activity in older versus
younger adults performing executive function tasks. We review the extant literature, using …

This study examined the contributions of verbal ability and executive control to verbal
fluency performance in older adults (n= 82). Verbal fluency was assessed in letter and …

In this article, marking the 65th anniversary of the Journal of Gerontology, we offer a broad-
brush overview of the new synthesis between neuroscientific and psychological approaches …

The rising proportion of elderly people worldwide will yield an increased incidence of age-
associated cognitive impairments, imposing major burdens on societies. Consequently …

Excitatory anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (atDCS) can improve human
cognitive functions, but neural underpinnings of its mode of action remain elusive. In a cross …

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 …

Introduction The long preclinical phase of Alzheimer's disease provides opportunities for
potential disease-modifying interventions in prodromal stages such as mild cognitive …

Normal aging is associated with cognitive decline and underlying brain dysfunction.
Previous studies concentrated less on brain network changes at a systems level. Our goal …

Background The processing of verbal fluency tasks relies on the coordinated activity of a
number of brain areas, particularly in the frontal and temporal lobes of the left hemisphere …
