Moreover, research to contradict hemispheric lateralisation of the brain comes from a case study on a patient named EB. EB suffered from brain damage that resulted in the removal of his left hemisphere and therefore his language centres. Despite this, after some time EB managed to regain some of his language ability which would not be possible if the brain was completely lateralised. This demonstrates that language must be in more areas than just the left hemisphere, arguing against lateralisation of function in the brain.
