Clinical, anatomical and pathological features in the three variants of primary progressive aphasia : a review
(Frontiers media, 2018-08-21)Primary progressive aphasias (PPA) are neurodegenerative diseases clinically characterized by an early and relatively isolated language impairment. Three main clinical variants, namely the nonfluent/agrammatic variant (nfvPPA), the semantic variant ... -
Maternal mind-mindedness and children’s school readiness: A longitudinal study of developmental processes
(2017-02)This study aimed to test a five-wave sequential mediation model linking maternal mind-mindedness during infancy to children’s school readiness in kindergarten through a serial mediation involving child language and effortful control in toddlerhood and ... -
Neural changes associated with semantic processing in healthy aging despite intact behavioral performance
(2015-10-01)Semantic memory recruits an extensive neural network including the left inferior prefrontal cortex (IPC) and the left temporoparietal region, which are involved in semantic control processes, as well as the anterior temporal lobe region (ATL) which ... -
Task-induced functional connectivity of picture naming in healthy aging : the impacts of age and task complexity
(MIT Press, 2020-06-01)The topological organization of the brain, governed by the capacity of brain regions to synchronize their activity, allows for cost-effective performance during everyday cognitive activity. Functional connectivity is an fMRI method deemed task-specific ... -
Test-retest reliability of diffusion measures extracted along white matter language fiber bundles using HARDI-based tractography
(Frontiers media, 2019-01-14)High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI)-based tractography has been increasingly used in longitudinal studies on white matter macro- and micro-structural changes in the language network during language acquisition and in language impairments. ...
