Efficient and effective assessment of deficits and their neural bases in stroke aphasia (2022)
Journal Article
Halai, A. D., De Dios Perez, B., Stefaniak, J. D., & Lambon Ralph, M. A. (2022). Efficient and effective assessment of deficits and their neural bases in stroke aphasia. Cortex, 155, 333-346. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2022.07.014

Objective: Multi-assessment batteries are necessary for diagnosing and quantifying the multifaceted deficits observed post-stroke. Extensive batteries are thorough but impractically long for clinical settings or large-scale research studies. Clinical...

Damage to temporoparietal cortex is sufficient for impaired semantic control (2022)
Journal Article
Thompson, H. E., Noonan, K. A., Halai, A. D., Hoffman, P., Stampacchia, S., Hallam, G., …Jefferies, E. (2022). Damage to temporoparietal cortex is sufficient for impaired semantic control. Cortex, 156, 71-85. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cortex.2022.05.022

Semantic control allows us to focus semantic activation on currently relevant aspects of knowledge, even in the face of competition or when the required information is weakly encoded. Diverse cortical regions, including left prefrontal and posterior... Read More about Damage to temporoparietal cortex is sufficient for impaired semantic control.

Experiences of people with multiple sclerosis at work: Towards the understanding of the needs for a job retention vocational rehabilitation intervention (2022)
Journal Article
De dios perez, B., Radford, K., & das Nair, R. (2022). Experiences of people with multiple sclerosis at work: Towards the understanding of the needs for a job retention vocational rehabilitation intervention. WORK: A Journal of Prevention, Assessment & Rehabilitation, 72(1), 303-313. https://doi.org/10.3233/wor-210012

Background: Supporting people with multiple sclerosis (MS) at work can be challenging due to the unpredictable nature and myriad of disease-related symptoms, and issues related to the work environment.

Objective: To explore, amongst people with MS... Read More about Experiences of people with multiple sclerosis at work: Towards the understanding of the needs for a job retention vocational rehabilitation intervention.
