We are beyond excited to share this news with you🎉🎉
We are very grateful to the State of California and Governor @GavinNewsom for funding our research program: https://t.co/3OzniwDrZD. So many exciting things are on the way.

Tee et al. show that the visuospatial cognitive phenotypes of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) are associated with anatomical changes over the right hemisphere, albeit the structural changes of PPA are most evident over the left hemisphere. https://t.co/9NMXw0plL0 @UofCalifornia

[Siddharth Ramanan, PhD @SidRamanan]

Excited to share our latest paper in @Brain1878! We discuss why some logopenic PPA pts show additional non-linguistic cognitive deficits and how to model their varying clinical presentations w/ multidimensional frameworks. Collab bw @mrccbu @CambridgeFTD @Muireann_Irish @UCSFmac

Younes et al. show that right-predominant anterior temporal lobe degeneration is characterized by a progressive decline in semantic knowledge for socioemotionally relevant concepts, and propose that it should be named ‘semantic behavioural variant FTD’. https://t.co/COB7T6R8d7

Ever wondered what Noam Chomsky thinks about the neuroscience of language? Well, I asked him! Honored to host this living legend, founder of the field of generative linguistics, on the Language Neuroscience Podcast, Episode 21. Please RT to share widely.

📢Paper alert 📢
Check out our paper ‘Right temporal lobe and socioemotional semantics: semantic behavioral variant FTD’
We outline new diagnostic criteria that will facilitate early identification of patients with early, focal right ATL degeneration.

Hot off the press: correct responses are all alike, every error is...a door into the lexico-semantic system! Check out what primary progressive aphasia patients taught us https://t.co/u1MkUTo389 Work with colleagues at @UCSFmac / @AlbaLanguage / @ucsf_snl_bil

[Valentina Borghesani @vborghesani]

New paper alert!📣Neurodegeneration of the anterior temporal lobes teaches us a great deal about cognition and behavior. Kudos to Kyan & the incredible @AlbaLanguage & @UCSFmac team behind this comprehensive clinical dive into the right side variant
