Is language core to thought, or a separate process? For 15 years, the neuroscientist Ev Fedorenko has gathered evidence of a language network in the human brain — and has found some similarities to ...

Speaking more than one language can slow down the brain's aging and lower risks linked to accelerated aging. In a new study, researchers analyzed the Biobehavioral Age Gap (BAG) —a person's biological ...

A new study reveals that the human brain processes spoken language in a sequence that closely mirrors the layered architecture of advanced AI language models. Using electrocorticography data from ...

We investigated how our brains process language during real-life conversations. Specifically, we wanted to understand which brain regions become active when we're speaking and listening, and how these ...

Hysell V Oviedo receives funding from NIH. Your brain breaks apart fleeting streams of acoustic information into parallel channels – linguistic, emotional and musical – and acts as a biological ...

Neuroscientists have long listened to the brain’s electrical spikes, but those loud crackles are only the final output of a much quieter conversation. Now a set of new tools is letting researchers ...

The social network company hopes neuroscience will give it an advantage in the AI race. Back in 2017, Facebook unveiled plans for a brain-reading hat that you could use to text just by thinking.

However, there's evidence that parts of the brain involved in language, like the dorsal anterior temporal lobe (ATL), are also involved in this process—dementia patients with ATL damage, for example, ...

In their classic 1998 textbook on cognitive neuroscience, Michael Gazzaniga, Richard Ivry, and George Mangun made a sobering observation: there was no clear mapping between how we process language and ...
