    About This Study

    The goal of this study is to learn how the brain understands and uses language. We will use an imaging tool to see which parts of the brain help with language tasks, like hearing sounds, making words, and understanding sentences. We hope to understand how the brain works with language and how it might be different in people with language problems. We are looking for healthy volunteers and volunteers diagnosed with conditions such as aphasia, dyslexia, traumatic brain injury (TBI), or epilepsy.
