Language and Cognition
Ablation studies are experimental techniques used to understand the function of specific brain regions or cognitive processes by selectively damaging or removing them and observing the resulting effects on behavior or cognitive performance. This method is often applied in the context of language and cognition to pinpoint which areas of the brain are crucial for particular language functions or cognitive tasks, enhancing our understanding of neural mechanisms.
