Boston University Aphasia Research Center

The Boston University Aphasia Research Center is a specialized facility dedicated to studying aphasia, a language disorder caused by brain injury such as stroke. Researchers explore how language works in the brain and develop treatments to help people regain communication skills. The center combines scientific research with clinical services, offering assessments and therapy for individuals with aphasia. Its goal is to understand the underlying mechanisms of language impairment and improve recovery strategies, ultimately enhancing quality of life for those affected by language disabilities.
