Articulating: the neural mechanisms of speech production

E Kearney, FH Guenther - Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Speech production is a highly complex sensorimotor task involving tightly coordinated
processing across large expanses of the cerebral cortex. Historically, the study of the neural …
