Marco Tettamanti,Giovanni Buccino,Maria Cristina Saccuman,Vittorio Gallese,Massimo Danna,Paola Scifo,Ferruccio Fazio,Giacomo Rizzolatti,Stefano F. Cappa,Daniela Perani +9 more
TL;DR: The results showed that listening to action-related sentences activates a left fronto-parieto-temporal network that includes the pars opercularis of the inferior frontal gyrus (Broca's area), as well as the inferior parietal lobule, the intraparietal sulcus, and the posterior middle temporal gyrus.

TL;DR: It is concluded that there is a universal neurocognitive basis for dyslexia and that differences in reading performance among dyslexics of different countries are due to different orthographies.

TL;DR: A new diagnostic indicator of FDG PET scan abnormality, based on age-adjusted t statistics and an automated voxel-based procedure, is presented and validated in a large data set comprising 110 normal controls and 395 patients with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD) that were studied in eight participating centers as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
The bilingual brain. Proficiency and age of acquisition of the second language.
Daniela Perani,Eraldo Paulesu,Nuria Sebastian Galles,Emmanuel Dupoux,Stanislas Dehaene,Valentino Bettinardi,Stefano F. Cappa,Ferruccio Fazio,Jacques Mehler +8 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that, at least for pairs of L1 and L2 languages that are fairly close, attained proficiency is more important than age of acquisition as a determinant of the cortical representation of L2.
