What is it about?
We have explored the effect of rTMS targeting the motor cortex of the lips in persons with post-stroke aphasia suffering from phonological deficit. This study highlights the role of the motor cortex in language production.

Why is it important?
We highlighted how rTMS individualization based on language impairments can enhance language recovery in aphasia.
Perspectives
Further studies might focus on individualizing rTMS targets and parameters based on language impairments.
