Fundamental to all human languages is an unlimited expressive capacity and creative
flexibility that allow speakers to rapidly generate novel and complex utterances. In turn …

New research suggests that the same hippocampal computations used in support of
memory are also used for language processing, providing direct neurophysiological …

Language is classically thought to be supported by perisylvian cortical regions. Here we
provide intracranial evidence linking the hippocampal complex to linguistic processing. We …

Since Tulving proposed a distinction in memory between semantic and episodic memory,
considerable effort has been directed towards understanding their similar and unique …

Three studies tested the claim that HM exhibits a fipure memory deficitfl that has left his
ability to comprehend language unimpaired relative to memory-normal controls. In Study 1 …

The field of neurocognition is currently undergoing a significant change of perspective.
Traditional neurocognitive models evolved into an integrative and dynamic vision of …

One of the most influential views on the hippocampal function suggests that this brain region
is critically involved in relational memory processing, that is, binding converging inputs to …

The quintessential memory system in the human brain—the hippocampus and surrounding
medial temporal lobe—is often treated as a module for the formation of conscious, or …

Most research on the neurobiology of language focuses on language alone. However, new
biological functions commonly make use of previously existing mechanisms. Thus, language …
