Neuroimaging studies investigating bilingual processes have produced controversial results
in determining similarities versus differences between L1 and L2 neural networks. The …

Notwithstanding rising interest, a coherent picture of the brain's representation of two
languages has not yet been achieved. In the present meta-analysis we analysed a large …

Over the past decade, functional neuroimaging technologies such as positron emission
tomography and functional magnetic resonance imaging have enabled neuroscientists to …

The functional brain network of a bilingual's first language (L1) plays a crucial role in
shaping that of his or her second language (L2). However, it is less clear how L2 acquisition …

Language representation in the bilingual brain is the result of many factors, of which age of
appropriation (AoA) and proficiency of the second language (L2) are probably the most …

In the present study, we explored how Age of Acquisition (AoA) of L2 affected brain
structures in bilingual individuals. Thirty-six native English speakers who were bilingual …

The question of whether the bilingual brain processes a first and second language (L1 and
L2, respectively) differently is a central issue in many psycholinguistic and neurolinguistic …

Approximately half the world's population can now speak more than one language.
Understanding the neural basis of language organisation in bilinguals, and whether the …

A large body of previous neuroimaging studies suggests that multiple languages are
processed and organized in a single neuroanatomical system in the bilingual brain …

Bilingual individuals need effective mechanisms to prevent interference between their
languages. Using event-related brain potentials (ERPs) and functional magnetic resonance …
