Out now in Brain! Using direct cortical stimulation in 49 patients we show distinct regions of ventral temporal cortex that selectively knock out the ability to read or name. Word-selective VWFA can causally and reliably be isolated from other visual language functions. doi.org/10.1093/brai...
Did you try stimulating the perirhinal area as this has been implicated in semantic dementia?
NICE JOB OSCAR! I asked you this before, but do you think this simulates pure anomia?
Hi, looks interesting :) I don't seem to have access to the article for some reason, would you mind sending it to me? If so, my email is heidasi@hi.is
