Neural Bases of Language
Speech Science Modeling
Areas of Expertise
Henri Cohen's research focuses on the neuropsychology of langage and speech. His current work includes developmental disorders affecting language, language and speech impairments in subcortical disorders such as Parkinson's disease, and the cerebral bases of specific language processes (pragmatics, prosody, semantics). Finally, he is also involved in work on hormones and cognitive deficits (e.g. Cushing syndrome).
