The classical Wernicke-Lichtheim-Geschwind model of the [[neurobiology]] of [[language]]. In this model [[Broca's area]] is crucial for [[language production]], [[Wernicke's area]] subserves language [[comprehension]], and the necessary information exchange between these areas (such as in reading aloud) is done via the [[arcuate fasciculus]], a major fiber bundle connecting the [[language area]]s in [[temporal cortex]] (Wernicke's area) and [[frontal cortex]] (Broca's area). The language areas are bordering one of the major fissures in the brain, the so-called [[Sylvian fissure]]. Collectively, this part of the brain is often referred to as [[perisylvian cortex]]. perisylvian_cortex.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:52by 127.0.0.1
