The project uses real-time fMRI neurofeedback and motor imagery to improve reading deficits in stroke survivors by enhancing brain activity in language regions, aiming to advance cognitive rehabilitation.
Description
This project aims to develop a biologically-based intervention to improve reading abilities in stroke survivors with language deficits. Using real-time fMRI neurofeedback combined with motor imagery, the study seeks to enhance activity in the left hemisphere's language regions, potentially alleviating reading impairments.
