DESCRIPTION:Prof Nitin Tandon\nImplantable speech BCIs have shown that int
 ended articulation can be translated into words for people with paralysis.
  Aphasia poses a different challenge: the networks that turn ideas into la
 nguage may themselves be injured\, even when meaningful thoughts remain. I
  will describe how intracranial recordings reveal the distributed dynamics
  of speech production and trace representations of meaning from single wor
 ds through phrases\, sentences\, and discourse. By combining broad network
  coverage with recordings at the level of individual neurons\, we aim to i
 dentify which aspects of language survive injury and where they can be acc
 essed. These findings point toward a new class of BCIs that decode residua
 l semantic representations to help people with aphasia.
