Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology"
DOI: 10.1002/acn3.51613
Abstract: CAG repeat‐expansion spinocerebellar ataxias (CAG‐SCAs) are genetically defined multisystemic degenerative diseases, resulting in motor symptoms including dysarthria with a substantial impact on daily living. Whilst speech therapy is widely recommended in ataxia, very limited evidence… read more here.

Dual‐Modality Flexible Calorimetric Sensor for Speech Emotion and Human Motion Recognition
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Advanced Functional Materials"
DOI: 10.1002/adfm.202520284
Abstract: Human motion and speech constitute fundamental dimensions of human activities. Conventionally, these modalities are monitored separately using accelerometers and acoustic sensors, thereby introducing complexities in structural design and system integration. Here, a dual‐modality flexible calorimetric… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.22967
Abstract: Although potentially beneficial in terms of raising awareness and conservation funding, tourist visitation of wild primates can have negative impacts on visited groups. Tourism‐generated noise is a relatively understudied facet of ecotourism research, and the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ana.25217
Abstract: Two prominent hypotheses inform our current understanding of how the brain recovers speech-motor function after an insult: (1) Recruitment of perilesional cortex to form a new network of regions in the affected hemisphere (the perilesional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/dev.22552
Abstract: Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often exhibit greater sensitivity to non-speech sounds, reduced sensitivity to speech, and increased variability in cortical activity during auditory speech processing. We assessed differences in cortical responses and variability… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.25144
Abstract: Various brain regions are implicated in speech processing, and the specific function of some of them is better understood than others. In particular, involvement of the dorsal precentral cortex (dPCC) in speech perception remains debated,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.26676
Abstract: Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects processing of language at different levels (e.g., acoustic, phonological, semantic). Recording brain activity via EEG while people listen to a continuous story allows to analyze brain responses to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.26704
Abstract: Progressive apraxia of speech (PAOS) is a 4R tauopathy characterized by difficulties with motor speech planning. Neurodegeneration in PAOS targets the premotor cortex, particularly the supplementary motor area (SMA), with degeneration of white matter (WM)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.70023
Abstract: The relationship between speech production and perception is a topic of ongoing debate. Some argue that there is little interaction between the two, while others claim they share representations and processes. One perspective suggests increased… read more here.
