Abstract Purpose of Review Despite current rehabilitative strategies, stroke remains a
leading cause of disability in the USA. There is a window of enhanced neuroplasticity early …

Background Aphasia is an acquired language impairment following brain damage that
affects some or all language modalities: expression and understanding of speech, reading …

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 …

With increasing rates of survival throughout the past several years, stroke remains one of the
leading causes of adult disability. Following the onset of stroke, spontaneous mechanisms of …

Abstract Language is not a single function, but instead results from interactions between
neural representations and computations that can be damaged independently of each other …

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 …

Background and Purpose: Optimizing speech and language therapy (SLT) regimens for
maximal aphasia recovery is a clinical research priority. We examined associations between …

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

A major objective in post-stroke aphasia research is to gain a deeper understanding of
neuroplastic mechanisms that drive language recovery, with the ultimate goal of enhancing …

Given the profound impact of language impairment after stroke (aphasia), neuroplasticity
research is garnering considerable attention as means for eventually improving aphasia …
