Anterior temporal cortex and semantic memory : Reconciling findings from neuropsychology and functional imaging

TL;DR: Neuropsychological and PE T functional imaging data are combined to show that when healthy subjects identify concepts at a specific level, the regions activated correspond to the site of maximal atrophy in patients with relatively pure semantic impairment.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Prior Visual Information on Recognition of Speech and Sounds

TL;DR: The authors used cross-modal priming for spoken words and sounds to identify three distinct classes of visuo-auditory incongruency effects: 1) spoken words in the left superior temporal sulcus (STS), 2) environmental sounds in the right angular gyrus (AG), and 3) both words and sound in the lateral and medial prefrontal cortices (IFS/mPFC).

The effect of prior visual information on recognition of speech and sounds

TL;DR: Effective connectivity analyses (dynamic causal modeling) suggest that these incongruency effects may emerge via greater bottom-up effects from early auditory regions to intermediate multisensory integration areas (i.e., STS and AG).
Journal ArticleDOI

Overcoming language barriers in healthcare: A protocol for investigating safe and effective communication when patients or clinicians use a second language

TL;DR: In this paper, a hospital-based study examined interactions between healthcare practitioners and their patients who either share or do not share a first language, and found that communication errors between a healthcare practitioner and patient when one or both are speaking a second language are increasingly likely.

The Role of the Posterior Superior Temporal Sulcus in Audiovisual Processing

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the role of the left posterior superior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS) in audiovisual conceptual matching and show that the pSTS activation is similar to that observed for intramodal conceptual matching, but is greater for congruent and incongruent trials when auditory and visual stimuli are simultaneously presented.
