Neural Mechanisms Underlying the Dynamic Updating of Native Language

open access: yesNeurobiology of Language, 2020
Language users encounter different sentence structures from different people in different contexts. Although syntactic variability and adults’ ability to adapt to it are both widely acknowledged, the relevant mechanisms and neural substrates are unknown.

Clinical efficacy of pre-trained large language models through the lens of aphasia

open access: yesScientific Reports
The rapid development of large language models (LLMs) motivates us to explore how such state-of-the-art natural language processing systems can inform aphasia research. What kind of language indices can we derive from a pre-trained LLM?

A scoping review of interaction dynamics in minimally verbal autistic individuals

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology
Interaction dynamics provide information about how social interactions unfold over time and have implications for communication development. Characterizing social interaction in autistic people who are minimally verbal (MV) has the potential to ...

Variability in blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal in patients with stroke-induced and primary progressive aphasia

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2015
Although fMRI is increasingly used to assess language-related brain activation in patients with aphasia, few studies have examined the hemodynamic response function (HRF) in perilesional, and contralesional areas of the brain.
