This presentation examines word learning strategies in children with specific language impairment, showing that spaced retrieval outperforms repeated study despite far fewer retrieval attempts.
This presentation examines how toddlers at risk for language impairment struggle to produce diverse sentence subjects, with third-person subjects emerging notably later than expected.
This presentation follows twins from ages 2 to 16 to study language impairment inheritance, highlighting an unexpected gap in early language between identical and fraternal twins.
This panel discussion brings together aphasia researchers to discuss the right hemisphere’s role in recovery, weighing whether its involvement helps, hinders, or simply reflects the brain’s response to injury.
This presentation investigates whether brain stimulation can improve aphasia treatment outcomes, pointing to a person’s genetic profile as an influence on how well they respond to this stimulation.
This presentation examines how brain network organization before treatment predicts naming therapy outcomes for people with aphasia, revealing that some patients’ brains reorganize more favorably than others.
This presentation explores how sentence processing treatment reshapes brain activity in people with chronic aphasia, finding that recovery often relies more heavily on right hemisphere regions than expected.
This presentation examines how the brain reorganizes after a stroke causes aphasia, weighing whether observed changes reflect biological repair processes or behavioral adaptations patients develop over time.
This presentation examines methods for identifying language regions in the brains of people with aphasia, showing that commonly used mapping tasks often fail to produce reliable results.
This presentation describes an adaptive treatment design for minimally verbal school-aged children with autism, comparing strategy sequences, including speech-generating devices, to determine which works best.
