Conceptual knowledge plays a pivotal role in human cognition. Grounded cognition theories
propose that concepts consist of perceptual-motor features represented in modality-specific …

Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques are popular tools to investigate brain function in
health and disease. Although transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is widely used in …

Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) techniques are widely used tools for the study and
rehabilitation of cognitive functions. Different NIBS approaches aim to enhance or impair …

Semantic knowledge is central to human cognition. The angular gyrus (AG) is widely
considered a key brain region for semantic cognition. However, the role of the AG in …

Here, the functions of the angular gyrus (AG) are evaluated in the light of current evidence
from transcranial magnetic/electric stimulation (TMS/TES) and EEG/MEG studies. 65 …

Recent neurobiological models on language suggest that auditory sentence comprehension
is supported by a coordinated temporal interplay within a left-dominant brain network …

Conceptual knowledge is central to cognition. Previous neuroimaging research indicates
that conceptual processing involves both modality-specific perceptual-motor areas and …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an invaluable non-invasive brain stimulation
(NIBS) technique to modulate cortical activity and behavior, but high within-and between …

Abstract concepts like mental state concepts lack a physical referent, which can be directly
perceived. Classical theories therefore claim that abstract concepts require amodal …

Dyslexia, a frequent learning disorder, is characterized by severe impairments in reading
and writing and hypoactivation in reading regions in the left hemisphere. Despite decades of …
