Résumé :	Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder that can occur following brain damage. It is characterized by impairments in producing the movements needed to articulate words [1] but does not affect other language processing domains such as writing and comprehension. Several rehabilitation approaches have been developed to improve dysarthria; they involve intensive exercise or alternative/augmentative communication devices but have shown no strong beneficial effects [2]. Recent studies in neuro-modulation have effectively used non-invasive brain stimulation to treat post-stroke aphasia [3, for a review]. Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the left inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) has been found to mitigate language articulation impairments in aphasia [4], [5]. Moreover, recent findings from healthy individuals showed that cathodal tDCS over the right cerebellum improved performance in a sequenced articulation task [6], which suggests promising perspectives for treating motor speech disorders.
