Right-hemisphere coherence to speech at prereading stages predicts reading performance one year later
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Neural entrainment to the low-frequency modulations of speech might contribute
significantly to reading acquisition. Still, no previous study has actually attempted to
establish a longitudinal link between them. The ...
One Way or Another: Cortical Language Areas Flexibly Adapt Processing Strategies to Perceptual And Contextual Properties of Speech
(Cerebral Cortex, 2021)
Cortical circuits rely on the temporal regularities of speech to optimize signal parsing for sound-to-meaning mapping. Bottom-up speech analysis is accelerated by top–down predictions about upcoming words. In everyday ...
Agreement and illusion of disagreement: An ERP study on Basque
(Cortex, 2019)
Agreement is a syntactic relation involving a controller (e.g., a noun) and a target with matching inflectional morphology (e.g., a verb). Across languages, electrophysiological studies consistently report that the presence ...
Decoding numeracy and literacy in the human brain: insights from MEG and MVPA
(NATURE, 2023)
Numbers and letters are the fundamental building blocks of our everyday social interactions. Previous studies have focused on determining the cortical pathways shaped by numeracy and literacy in the human brain, partially ...
Increased top-down semantic processing in natural speech linked to better reading in dyslexia
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Early research proposed that individuals with developmental dyslexia use contextual information to facilitate lexical access and compensate for phonological deficits. Yet at present there is no corroborating neuro-cognitive ...
Maintenance cost in the processing of subject-verb dependencies
(APA American Psychological Association, 2022)
Although research in sentence comprehension has suggested that processing long-distance dependencies
involves maintenance between the elements that form the dependency, studies on maintenance of
long-distance subject–verb ...
Theta-gamma phase-amplitude coupling in auditory cortex is modulated by language proficiency
(WILEY, 2023)
The coordination between the theta phase (3–7 Hz) and gamma power (25–35 Hz)
oscillations (namely theta-gamma phase-amplitude coupling, PAC) in the auditory
cortex has been proposed as an essential neural mechanism ...
Oscillatory dynamics underlying noun and verb production in highly proficient bilinguals
(Nature Research, 2022-01)
[EN] Words representing objects (nouns) and words representing actions (verbs) are essential components of speech across languages. While there is evidence regarding the organizational principles governing neural representation ...
Neurodevelopmental oscillatory basis of speech processing in noise
(ELSEVIER, 2023)
Humans’ extraordinary ability to understand speech in noise relies on multiple processes that develop with age. Using magnetoencephalography (MEG), we characterize the underlying neuromaturational basis by quantifying how ...
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 ...
