Auj j'ai bossé sur Lazare Lelong (1777-1861), l'un des patients clefs dans les découvertes de #Broca concernant la région du cerveau considérée comme l'un des centres majeurs de la production du langage (aire de Broca). Victor Leborgne et lui étaient atteints d'aphasie. Lelong ne pouvait dire que 5 mots. Leurs cerveaux sont à #SorbonneUniversité.

Quelques recherches archivistiques pour trouver actes de naissance et de décès, registre d'hospitalisation. Et j'ai commencé sa biographie #Wikipédia.

Our TMS-EEG study is now out🎉! We show that #TMS over #Broca's area does not interfere with #syntactic #prediction 🧠, and we suggest a role of this region in bottom-up syntactic operations.

Big thanks to all the co-authors for the great team effort✨!

Online neurostimulation of Broca’s area does not interfere with syntactic predictions: A combined TMS-EEG approach to basic linguistic combination

Categorical predictions have been proposed as the key mechanism supporting the fast pace of syntactic composition in language. Accordingly, grammar-based expectations are formed—e.g., the determiner “a” triggers the prediction for a noun—and facilitate the analysis of incoming syntactic information, which is then checked against a single or few other word categories. Previous functional neuroimaging studies point towards Broca’s area in the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) as one fundamental cortical region involved in categorical prediction during incremental language processing. Causal evidence for this hypothesis is however still missing. In this study, we combined Electroencephalography (EEG) and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to test whether Broca’s area is functionally relevant in predictive mechanisms for language. We transiently perturbed Broca’s area during the first word in a two-word construction, while simultaneously measuring the Event-Related Potential (ERP) correlates of syntactic composition. We reasoned that if Broca’s area is involved in predictive mechanisms for syntax, disruptive TMS during the first word would mitigate the difference in the ERP responses for predicted and unpredicted categories in basic two-word constructions. Contrary to this hypothesis, perturbation of Broca’s area at the predictive stage did not affect the ERP correlates of basic composition. The correlation strength between the electrical field induced by TMS and the ERP ...
