Language & Brain Lab aims to examine the neurocognitive mechanisms of real-time language processing via an interdisciplinary and multidimensional approach, incorporating perspectives of linguistics, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience. Our research seeks to understand how the human cognitive systems and the brain work to obtain the meaning of linguistic expressions. We implement theoretically-driven experimental investigations, using various behavioral and neurological techniques (e.g., fMRI, self-paced reading, questionnaires, eye-tracking), grounded on linguistics and cognitive neuroscience, in order to obtain a more comprehensive picture of human language comprehension.
