No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The currently available interventions only partially restore language abilities in patients with post-stroke aphasia; preventing successful reintegration into society. This study will increase our knowledge of how we can use assistive technology interventions to help people with aphasia restore language function. Further, this project will help us identify regions of the brain responsible for these changes.
