summaryWe will explore how neuropsychology and neuroimaging can be leveraged to directly test cognitive neuroscience theories using the case of frontotemporal dementias affecting the language network. We will focus on pathological, neuroimaging, and cognitive data from primary progressive aphasia patients in a “chose your own adventure” flavour. The audience will be able to decide whether to touch on three (or more, time permitting) of the following aspects: the reading network, semantic knowledge organisation, grammatical categories processing, semantic dimensions recovery, or the role played by the task.
