Semantic parafoveal processing in natural reading: Insight from fixation-related potentials & eye movements
(WILEY, 2022)
Prior research suggests that we may access the meaning of parafoveal words during
reading. We explored how semantic-plausibility
parafoveal processing takes
place in natural reading through the co-registration
of eye ...
Group-level cortical functional connectivity patterns using fNIRS: assessing the effect of bilingualism in young infants
(Neurophotonics, 2021)
Significance: Early monolingual versus bilingual experience induces adaptations in the development
of linguistic and cognitive processes, and it modulates functional activation patterns during
the first months of life. ...
ICA-based denoising strategies in breath-hold induced cerebrovascular reactivity mapping with multi echo BOLD fMRI
(NeuroImage, 2021)
Performing a BOLD functional MRI (fMRI) acquisition during breath-hold (BH) tasks is a non-invasive, robust method to estimate cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR). However, movement and breathing-related artefacts caused by ...
A practical modification to a resting state fMRI protocol for improved characterization of cerebrovascular function
(NeuroImage, 2021)
Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), defined here as the Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) response to a CO 2 pressure change, is a useful metric of cerebrovascular function. Both the amplitude and the timing (hemo- ...
The effects of multi-echo fMRI combination and rapid T 2 ∗ -mapping on offline and real-time BOLD sensitivity
(NeuroImage, 2021)
A variety of strategies are used to combine multi-echo functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data, yet recent literature lacks a systematic comparison of the available options. Here we compare six different approaches ...
Highlighting the lack of neuropsychologists and speech therapists in healthcare services towards an accurate (pre‐ and postoperative) cognitive assessment in low‐grade glioma patients
(WILEY, 2022)
Key points
Due to the slow growth of Low‐grade gliomas (LGGs), cognitive impairments can be quite difficult to detect at early stages
There is a lack of staff specialized on the cognitive and emotional assessment of ...
Age-related Changes in Cortical Excitability Linked to Decreased Attentional and Inhibitory Control
(ELSEVIER, 2022)
Understanding age-related changes in cortical excitability and their relation to cognitive functions will
help to improve interventions based on non-invasive brain stimulation that aim to support cognitive function in
older ...
Probing Lexical Ambiguity: Word Vectors Encode Number and Relatedness of Senses
(Cognitive Science, 2021)
Lexical ambiguity—the phenomenon of a single word having multiple, distinguishable senses
—is pervasive in language. Both the degree of ambiguity of a word (roughly, its number of
senses) and the relatedness of those ...
Activating words without language: beta and theta oscillations reflect lexical access and control processes during verbal and non-verbal object recognition tasks
(OXFORD, 2023)
The intention to name an object modulates neural responses during object recognition tasks. However, the nature of this modulation is still unclear. We established whether a core operation in language, i.e. lexical access, ...
Behavioral and oscillatory signatures of switch costs in highly proficient bilinguals
(NATURE, 2023)
Bilinguals with a high proficiency in their first (L1) and second language (L2) often show comparable reaction times when switching from their L1 to L2 and vice-versa (“symmetrical switch costs”). However, the neurophysiological ...
