Research fellows at the Center for Language and Brain Maria Ivanova and Yulia Akinina went to Macao (China) to the 57^th annual meeting of Academy of Aphasia. There, they proudly presented Russian Aphasia Test, or RAT, for short. RAT is not only the first up-to-date standardized comprehensive test for post-stroke language deficits in Russian. It is also the first diagnostic language battery to be fully implemented as a tablet app. At the Academy of Aphasia the results of the RAT performance in two groups – individuals with aphasia and neurologically healthy controls – were reported.
