Neural mechanisms of language reorganization

Dorothee Saur, Prof. Dr. med.
University of Leipzig Medical Center, Germany

In my C-Star Lecture, I will summarize my work on mechanisms of language
plasticity. I will start with a short insight into the functional neuroanatomy
of language in the healthy brain. This is complemented by studies, in which
short-term plasticity is induced with transcranial magnetic stimulation in
healthy subjects and chronic stroke patients. The main part of my lecture is
dedicated to neuroimaging studies on stroke patients with aphasia. I will
introduce a model that summarizes the major neural mechanisms of language
recovery after stroke and their dependency on lesion site.
