SUMMARY:Peter Turkeltaub (Georgetown University) - Rethinking biological mechani
sms of aphasia recovery
DESCRIPTION:Rethinking biological mechanisms of aphasia recovery\n\nAbou
t one third of people who have a stroke experience aphasia\, a loss of l
anguage and communication ability that can have devastating consequences
on a person's life. Most people with aphasia never fully recover\, even
with maximal medical care and speech-language therapy. A major goal of
research is thus to understand the brain basis of aphasia recovery\, wit
h the hope that this information will lead to improved biologically base
d treatments. I will present recent neuroimaging studies testing specifi
c hypotheses regarding the biological mechanisms that might underlie cha
nges in language networks after stroke. The results challenge some commo
nly held ideas regarding the brain basis of aphasia recovery.\n\nFor mor

About one third of people

on ability that can have devastating consequences on a person's life. Mo
st people with aphasia never fully recover, even with maximal medical ca
re and speech-language therapy. A major goal of research is thus to unde
rstand the brain basis of aphasia recovery, with the hope that this info
rmation will lead to improved biologically based treatments. I will pres
ent recent neuroimaging studies testing specific hypotheses regarding th
e biological mechanisms that might underlie changes in language networks
after stroke. The results challenge some commonly held ideas regarding
the brain basis of aphasia recovery.
