Lesion-behaviour mapping is an influential and popular approach to anatomically localise
cognitive brain functions in the human brain. Multiple considerations, ranging from patient …

Lesion-symptom mapping is a key tool in understanding the relationship between structure
and function in neuroscience as it can provide objective evidence about which regions are …

Behavioural deficits in stroke reflect both structural damage at the site of injury, and
widespread network dysfunction caused by structural, functional, and metabolic …

In most cases, aphasia is caused by strokes involving the left hemisphere, with more
extensive damage typically being associated with more severe aphasia. The classical model …

Most individuals who experience aphasia after a stroke recover to some extent, with the
majority of gains taking place in the first year. The nature and time course of this recovery …

Background Patients with brain lesions provide a unique opportunity to understand the
functioning of the human mind. However, even when focal, brain lesions have local and …

Stroke significantly impacts the quality of life. However, the long-term cognitive evolution in
stroke is poorly predictable at the individual level. There is an urgent need to better predict …

The mature human brain is lateralized for language, with the left hemisphere (LH) primarily
responsible for sentence processing and the right hemisphere (RH) primarily responsible for …

The efficiency with which the brain reorganizes following injury not only depends on the
extent and the severity of the lesion, but also on its temporal features. It is established that …

Several dual route models of human speech processing have been proposed suggesting a
large-scale anatomical division between cortical regions that support motor–phonological …
