Cerebellum Hosts a Language Satellite Echoing the Brain’s Speech Network

New precision MRI work across 800+ participants reveals four cerebellar regions involved in language, including a right-posterior area that acts as a dedicated language satellite mirroring the neocortical language network. Most cerebellar regions also activate during non-linguistic tasks, suggesting the cerebellum helps integrate information across brain networks. The findings extend the language network into the cerebellum, with potential implications for language learning and aphasia therapy through non-invasive brain stimulation.
