Lots to unpack here! DM me if you’re interested in chatting about parietal areas involved in object use, category-specificity in the ventral stream, diaschisis, and lesion-symptom mapping! 8/8
English
We show that the descending portion of the left arcuate fasciculus connects parietal action areas with object representations in the ventral stream. We propose that structural connectivity outside the ventral stream shapes category-specificity within the ventral stream. 7/8

Super excited to share this paper! We show that lesions to parietal areas involved in skilled action disrupt processing of tools in the ventral stream. 1/8

Super pumped to be in Boston for #CNS2025! Three students from the lab will be presenting — stop by and chat to hear more about conceptual knowledge retrieval, and lesion-symptom mapping of word production!

Two posters from the lab will be presented at #sfn2024! See @estrawderwoman tomorrow to hear about functional connectivity in brain tumor patients. And see Will Burns’ poster on Tuesday relating perisylvian lesion damage to fMRI responses in precentral speech areas. 🧠

I had a great experience collaborating with over 50 co-authors on this paper (now published)!
Dr. Philipp Kuhnke@PhilKuhnke
I'm super excited that our consensus paper on the terminology of semantic memory is now published! This was a tremendous collaborative effort of 50+ researchers across the globe: link.springer.com/article/10.375…
