Researchers have sought to understand how language is processed in the brain, how brain
damage affects language abilities, and what can be expected during the recovery period …

The role of left and right hemisphere brain regions in language recovery after stroke-induced
aphasia remains controversial. Here, we summarize how neuroimaging studies increase the …
