Background Once considered mere noise, fMRI-based functional connectivity has become a
major neuroscience tool in part due to early studies demonstrating its reliability. These …

To date, fMRI research has been concerned primarily with evincing generic principles of
brain function through averaging data from multiple subjects. Given rapid developments in …

Frontal circuits play a critical role in motor, cognitive and affective processing, and their
dysfunction may result in a variety of brain disorders. However, exactly which frontal …

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 …

Image analysis tools for brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have become increasingly
important for computer-aided diagnosis that involves large amounts of medical image data …

Central to the development of clinical applications of functional connectomics for neurology
and psychiatry is the discovery and validation of biomarkers. Resting state fMRI (R-fMRI) is …

Language processing relies on a widespread network of brain regions. Univariate post-
stroke lesion-behavior map** is a particularly potent method to study brain–language …

Objective Many stroke patients show remarkable recovery of language after initial severe
impairment, but it is difficult to predict which patients will show good recovery. We aimed to …

Disagreements persist regarding the neural basis of syntactic processing, which has been
linked both to inferior frontal and posterior temporal regions of the brain. One focal point of …

Chronic aphasia is a common consequence of a left-hemisphere stroke. Since the early
insights by Broca and Wernicke, studying the relationship between the loci of cortical …
