Broca’s Area as a Pre-articulatory Phonetic Encoder: Gating the Motor Program

Broca’s Area as a Pre-articulatory Phonetic Encoder: Gating the Motor Program

The exact nature of the role of Broca’s area in control of speech and whether it is exerted at the cognitive or at the motor level is still debated. Intraoperative evidence of a lack of motor responses to direct electrical stimulation (DES) of Broca’s area and the observation that its stimulation in...
