Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The ventral language pathway has been recently highlighted with regards to language comprehension. However, its anatomy including connectivity, functions, and plasticity still remain elusive. We aimed to reveal their details by means of a multidisciplinary approach. We applied invasive neurophysiology, neuropsychology and neuroimaging methods to patients who underwent presurgical evaluation of epilepsy/tumor surgery. In this study, (i) we revealed that the ventral part of the anterior temporal lobe plays a crucial role in semantic cognition, (ii) we delineated the functional connectivity of the ventral fronto-temporal pathway by means of cortico-cortical evoked potential recording, and (iii) we could obtain the evidence for the dynamic reorganization of semantic processing from the longitudinal neuropsychological assessments in the patients with the resection of anterior temporal lobe.
