Behavioral and oscillatory signatures of switch costs in highly proficient bilinguals
Timofeeva, Polina; Quiñones, Ileana; Geng, Shuang; de Bruin, Angela; Carreiras, Manuel; Amoruso, Lucia (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 ... -
Decoding bilingualism from resting-state oscillatory network organization
Amoruso, Lucia; García, Adolfo M.; Pusil, Sandra; Timofeeva, Polina; Quiñones, Ileana; Carreiras, Manuel (WILEY, 2024)Can lifelong bilingualism be robustly decoded from intrinsic brain connectivity? Can we determine, using a spectrally resolved approach, the oscillatory networks that better predict dual-language experience? We recorded ... -
MULTIMAP: Multilingual picture naming test for mapping eloquent areas during awake surgeries
Gisbert Muñoz, Sandra; Quiñones, Ileana; Amoruso, Lucia; Timofeeva, Polina; Geng, Shuang; Boudelaa, Sami; Pomposo, Iñigo; Gil Robles, Santiago; Carreiras, Manuel (Behavior Research Methods, 2021)Picture naming tasks are currently the gold standard for identifying and preserving language-related areas during awake brain surgery. With multilingual populations increasing worldwide, patients frequently need to be ... -
Neural dynamics supporting longitudinal plasticity of action naming across languages: MEG evidence from bilingual brain tumor patients
Geng, Shuang; Quiñones, Ileana; Gil-Robles, Santiago; Pomposo Gastelu, Iñigo Cristobal; Bermudez, Garazi; Timofeeva, Polina; Molinaro, Nicola; Carreiras, Manuel; Amoruso, Lucia (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 ... -
Oscillatory and Structural Signatures of Language Plasticity in Brain Tumor Patients: a Longitudinal Study
Amoruso, Lucia; Geng, Shuang; Molinaro, Nicola; Timofeeva, Polina; Gisbert Muñoz, Sandra; Gil Robles, Santiago; Pomposo, Iñigo; Quiñones, Ileana; Carreiras, Manuel (Wiley, 2021-04-15)Recent evidence suggests that damage to the language network triggers its functional reorganization. Yet, the spectro-temporal fingerprints of this plastic rearrangement and its relation to anatomical changes is less well ... -
Oscillatory dynamics underlying noun and verb production in highly proficient bilinguals
Geng, Shuang; Molinaro, Nicola; Timofeeva, Polina; Quiñones González, Iliana; Carreiras, Manuel; Amoruso, Lucia (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 ... -
Switching off: disruptive TMS reveals distinct contributions of the posterior middle temporal gyrus and angular gyrus to bilingual speech production
Timofeeva, Polina; Finisguerra, Alessandra; D’Argenio, Giulia; García, Adolfo M.; Carreiras, Manuel; Quiñones, Ileana; Urgesi, Cosimo; Amoruso, Lucia (OXFORD, 2024)The role of the left temporoparietal cortex in speech production has been extensively studied during native language processing, proving crucial in controlled lexico-semantic retrieval under varying cognitive demands. Yet, ...
