Patient's interested in participating will undergo a medical interview with a UPenn Neurologist to determine eligibility. Once enrolled patients will receive brain imaging (MRI), Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and speech therapy. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate regions of the brain from outside the head, on the scalp. TMS can affect brain cells in specific locations of the brain. In this study, researchers will target language areas of the brain in an attempt to improve speech. This is a randomized trial, which means not all participants will receive real TMS. However, everyone in the study will have speech therapy.
