Abstract Language impairment, or aphasia, is a disabling symptom that affects at least one
third of individuals after stroke. Some affected individuals will spontaneously recover partial …

Purpose Understanding the brain basis of language and cognitive outcomes is a major goal
of aphasia research. Prior studies have not often considered the many ways that brain …

Lesion‐symptom mapping has become a cornerstone of neuroscience research seeking to
localize cognitive function in the brain by examining the sequelae of brain lesions. Recently …

Autobiographical memory (AM) is multifaceted, incorporating the vivid retrieval of contextual
detail (episodic AM), together with semantic knowledge that infuses meaning and coherence …

Aphasia recovery after stroke depends on the condition of the remaining, extralesional brain
network. Network control theory (NCT) provides a unique, quantitative approach to assess …

Inconsistent findings have been reported about the impact of structural disconnections on
language function in post-stroke aphasia. This study investigated patterns of structural …

While previous studies have found that white matter damage relates to impairment severity
in individuals with aphasia, further study is required to understand the relationship between …

Non-fluent speech is one of the most common impairments in post-stroke aphasia. The
rehabilitation of non-fluent speech in aphasia is particularly challenging as patients are …

In post-stroke aphasia, language tasks recruit a combination of residual regions within the
canonical language network, as well as regions outside of it in the left and right …

Background White matter disconnection of language-specific brain regions associates with
worse aphasia recovery. Despite a loss of direct connections, many stroke survivors may …
