Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is caused by selective neurodegeneration of the
language-dominant cerebral hemisphere; a language deficit initially arises as the only …

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 …

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 …

The loss and recovery of language functions are still incompletely understood. This
longitudinal functional MRI study investigated the neural mechanisms underlying language …

Wernicke's aphasia is characterized by severe word and sentence comprehension
impairments. The location of the underlying lesion site, known as Wernicke's area, remains …

Semantic cognition is underpinned by regions involved in representing conceptual
knowledge and executive control areas that provide regulation of this information according …

Recovery from aphasia is thought to depend on neural plasticity, that is, the functional
reorganization of surviving brain regions such that they take on new or expanded roles in …

Previous work has emphasized that cognitive functions in the human brain are organized
into large-scale networks. However, the mechanisms that allow these networks to …

Aphasia recovery post-stroke is classically and most commonly hypothesised to rely on
regions that were not involved in language premorbidly, through 'neurocomputational …
