The field of language research has seen tremendous progress in the last two decades. Advances in neuro-imaging and stimulation mapping have changed the way we conceive the neural basis of speech and language processing. In the past, the Wernicke-Lichtheim model was the most influential model explaining the neuro-anatomical basis of language. More recently, the concept of dual stream language processing has emerged, wherein separate dorsal and ventral networks are synergistically involved in phonological (sound to articulation) and semantic (sound to meaning) processing respectively. In this review article, we highlight new insights and approaches to the neurobiology of language, across different aspects of language processing like perception, comprehension, production, hemisphere lateralization, role of subcortical structures and effect of damage to language networks.

语言神经生物学的新范式


在过去的二十年中，语言研究领域取得了巨大进步。神经成像和刺激映射的进步已经改变了我们构想语音和语言处理的神经基础的方式。过去，Wernicke-Lichtheim模型是解释语言的神经解剖学基础的最有影响力的模型。最近，出现了双流语言处理的概念，其中分开的背侧和腹侧网络分别协同地参与了语音（声音到发音）和语义（声音到含义）处理。在这篇评论文章中，我们重点介绍了语言神经生物学的新见解和新方法，涵盖了语言处理的各个方面，例如感知，理解，产生，半球偏侧化，
