Seeking the neural basis of grammar : English noun and verb morphological processing investigated with rapid event-related fMRI and intracortical electrophysiology
… implanted through or near classical language areas of their brains, as a necessary clinical step in locating and surgically removing the seizure-causing tissue. The main findings of this thesis are: 1.) Morphology alone can activate Broca's area, 2.) Other areas are involved, including BA47, …

Auditory pathway responses to parametrized vowels in autism spectrum disorders
… Insula, the Auditory Cortex, Wernicke's area, and Broca's area. The stimuli were parametrized so as to target different signal processing capabilities associated with each region. They were presented to ASD and typically developing (TD) subjects while the salient regions were subject to a …

Songbird Brain Organization and its Molecular Convergence with Humans for Vocal Imitation Learning
… regions activated during speech include the LMC, Broca's area, and the Supplementary Motor Area (SMA). Using LCM and RNA-Seq, I generated vocal brain region specific gene sets for each of the four principal song nuclei in the zebra finch (Area X, HVC, LMAN, RA) and compared these with genes sets …

Nonuniform Power Changes and Spatial, Temporal and Spectral Diversity in High Gamma Band (>60 Hz) Signals in Human Electrocorticography
… task-relevant anatomic regions: sensorimotor, Broca's area, and superior temporal gyrus), these behavior- and location- dependent power changes evidenced nonuniform trends across the population of subjects. Second, we studied the dynamics of multiple frequency bands in order to quantify the …

Resting-state and task functional magnetic resonance imaging correlates of early language development in temporal and frontal lobe
Language is a critically important cognitive skill that enables both higher-order cognition andinteraction between individuals. Children face a daunting task of acquiring their first language through passive input, a task they do remarkably well in only a few short years. Linguistic processing is …
