Voxel-based lesion–symptom mapping
For more than a century, lesion–symptom mapping studies have yielded valuable insights
into the relationships between brain and behavior, but newer imaging techniques have …

Listening to speech activates motor areas involved in speech production
To examine the role of motor areas in speech perception, we carried out a functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI) study in which subjects listened passively to monosyllables …

Smoothing and cluster thresholding for cortical surface-based group analysis of fMRI data
Cortical surface-based analysis of fMRI data has proven to be a useful method with several
advantages over 3-dimensional volumetric analyses. Many of the statistical methods used in …

The thing that should not be: predictive coding and the uncanny valley in perceiving human and humanoid robot actions
Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) repetition suppression, we explored
the selectivity of the human action perception system (APS), which consists of temporal, …

Retinotopy and attention in human occipital, temporal, parietal, and frontal cortex
Novel mapping stimuli composed of biological motion figures were used to study the extent
and layout of multiple retinotopic regions in the entire human brain and to examine the …

Action comprehension in aphasia: linguistic and non-linguistic deficits and their lesion correlates
We tested aphasic patients’ comprehension of actions to examine processing deficits in the
linguistic and non-linguistic domains and their lesion correlates. Twenty-nine left-…

Lesion correlates of conversational speech production deficits
We assess brain areas involved in speech production using a recently developed lesion–symptom
mapping method (voxel-based lesion–symptom mapping, VLSM) with 50 aphasic …
