Scientists listen to the Brain's language code

NCT ID NCT05014841

Summary

This study aims to discover how the human brain understands speech across different languages like English, Spanish, and Mandarin. Researchers will record brain activity from patients already undergoing brain surgery for epilepsy or tumors. The goal is to map how speech sounds are processed, which could one day lead to better tools for diagnosing and treating language disorders like aphasia or dyslexia.
