Humans in Love Are Singing Birds: Socially-Mediated Brain Activity in Language Production
(MIT PRESS, 2023)
This functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study investigated whether and how the
human speech production circuit is mediated by social factors. Participants recited a poem in
the MRI scanner while viewing pictures ...
The effects of bilingualism on attentional processes in the first year of life
(Developmental Science, 2021)
Bilingualism is a powerful experiential factor, and its effects have been proposed to
extend beyond the linguistic domain by boosting the development of executive functioning
skills. Crucially, recent findings suggest ...
Input quality and speech perception development in bilingual infants' first year of life
(WILEY, 2022)
Individual differences in infants’ native phonological development have been
linked to the quantity and quality of infant-directed
speech (IDS). The effects of
parental and infant bilingualism on this relation in 131 ...
A novel cognitive neurosurgery approach for supramaximal resection of non-dominant precuneal gliomas: A case report
(SPRINGER, 2023)
Despite mounting evidence pointing to the contrary, classical neurosurgery presumes many cerebral regions are non-eloquent,
and therefore, their excision is possible and safe. This is the case of the precuneus and posterior ...
Neural dynamics supporting longitudinal plasticity of action naming across languages: MEG evidence from bilingual brain tumor patients
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Previous evidence suggests that distinct ventral and dorsal streams respectively underpin the semantic processing
of object and action knowledge. Recently, we found that brain tumor patients with dorsal gliomas in ...
Brain structure, phenotypic and genetic correlates of reading performance
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2023)
Reading is an evolutionarily recent development that recruits and tunes brain circuitry connecting primary- and language-processing regions. We investigated whether metrics of the brain’s physical structure correlate with ...
Cognitive reserve counteracts typical neural activity changes related to ageing
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Studies have shown that older adults with high Cognitive Reserve (HCR) exhibit better executive functioning than their low CR (LCR) counterparts. However, the neural processes linked to those differences are unclear. This ...
Verbal production dynamics and plasticity: functional contributions of language and executive control systems
(OXFORD, 2023)
Bilingual language production requires both language knowledge and language control in order to communicate in a target language. Learning or improving a language in adulthood is an increasingly common undertaking, and ...
Processing argument structure complexity in Basque-Spanish bilinguals
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)
Previous research on argument structure (AS) has shown that verb processing costs scale with the number of arguments and as a result of non-canonical thematic mapping. The Basque language has unique AS: Basque unergatives ...
