Thanks for the correction!

I misremembered because my professor's group did a lot of fMRI stuff, as well, and in the seminars we mostly talked about those.

Speech/language and brain is fascinating. There are resident linguists at major hospitals who are consulted before neurosurgery. Speech sounds are processed faster than other sounds in our brain. Rearranging sentences from active voice to passive voice, silently in your head, lead to easily seen activity in fMRIs, distinct from non-linguistic mental actions. And so on.
