The aim of the collaborative project was to elucidate functional connections in the human brain during language processing, making use of the modern imaging techniques (EEG/MEG, fMRI, PET). Results collected from unimpaired subjects have been applied, in particular, to target and evaluate rehabilitation in aphasic patients.
