Fascinating paper by UCSF MAC colleague Boon Lead Tee for anyone into language, the brain, diversity & culture. Wonder if I can explain to non-neurologists: We define some language disorders by manifestations in English-speakers. But what do these look like in other languages? 🧵 1/7:

New paper alert!📣Neurodegeneration of the anterior temporal lobes teaches us a great deal about cognition and behavior. Kudos to Kyan & the incredible ALBA Language Neurobiology laboratory & UCSF MAC team behind this comprehensive clinical dive into the right side variant

Hot off the press: correct responses are all alike, every error is...a door into the lexico-semantic system!

Younes et al. show that right-predominant anterior temporal lobe degeneration is characterized by a progressive decline in semantic knowledge for socioemotionally relevant concepts, and propose that it should be named ‘semantic behavioural variant FTD’. bit.ly/3bvnmMy

Excited to share our latest paper in Brain!
