Purpose: Recovery from aphasia after stroke has a decelerating trajectory, with the greatest gains taking place early and the slope of change decreasing over time. Despite its importance, little is known regarding evolution of language function in the early postonset period. The goal of this study was to characterize the dynamics and nature of…

Wilson, Stephen M.; Eriksson, Dana K.; Yen, Melodie; Demarco, Andrew T.; Schneck, Sarah M.; Lucanie, Jilian M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Recovery from aphasia is thought to depend on neural plasticity, that is, functional reorganization of surviving brain regions such that they take on new or expanded roles in language processing. To make progress in characterizing the nature of this process, we need feasible, reliable, and valid methods for identifying language regions of…
