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 ...
Hypothesis-driven genome-wide association studies provide novel insights into genetics of reading disabilities
(SpringerNature, 2022-12)
Reading Disability (RD) is often characterized by difficulties in the phonology of the language. While the molecular mechanisms underlying it are largely undetermined, loci are being revealed by genome-wide association ...
Word frequency and reading demands modulate brain activation in the inferior frontal gyrus
(NATURE, 2023)
Processing efficiency differs between high- and low-frequency words, with less frequent words
resulting in longer response latencies in several linguistic behavioral tasks. Nevertheless, studies
using functional MRI to ...
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 ...
Decoding bilingualism from resting-state oscillatory network organization
(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 ...
Does bilingual experience influence statistical language learning?
(ELSEVIER, 2024)
Statistical language learning (SL) tasks measure different aspects of foreign language learning. Studies have used SL tasks to investigate whether bilingual experience confers advantages in acquiring additional languages ...
