    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Linguistics

    Background:

    • Agraphia and alexia are complex language disorders affecting writing and reading abilities.
    • Disconnection syndromes, resulting from damage to white matter tracts like the corpus callosum, can lead to unique neurological deficits.
    • Understanding the specific roles of brain hemispheres in language processing remains an active area of research.
