Georgetown University received a $695,903 Project Grant from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031. The grant funds a longitudinal research study investigating language recovery and cognitive outcomes in adolescents and young adults who experienced left hemisphere strokes during childhood (ages 2-13). The research builds on prior findings showing successful language reorganization to the right hemisphere following perinatal strokes and seeks to determine the critical periods and mechanisms of neural plasticity in childhood stroke recovery compared with adult stroke outcomes. The project will recruit 90 participants—30 with arterial ischemic stroke (AIS), 30 with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and 30 healthy sibling controls—and employ a comprehensive battery of behavioral and functional neuroimaging language tasks to assess when language successfully reorganizes to right hemisphere homotopic regions after childhood stroke versus when typical adult stroke patterns emerge with persistent language impairments. Additionally, the study will collect resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging scans to characterize neural network differences between stroke survivors and sibling controls, advancing understanding of developmental brain plasticity and informing clinical interventions for pediatric stroke populations.
