New paper! We show written word-selective ventral occipito-temporal region, the superior temporal sulcus, and orofacial sensorimotor regions encode phonological information from auditory and visual speech, but with multisensory abstraction only in STS and SM. 💬 🧠

Stellar work by Jacek Matuszewski combining fMRI and chronometric TMS to reveal a clear correspondence between sighted and blind on how their occipital regions functionally support reading and speech processing. Fun collaboration with Polish dream team. www.jneurosci.org/content/earl...
