Natural language is often seen as the single factor that explains the cognitive singularity of
the human species. Instead, we propose that humans possess multiple internal languages …

A fundamental function of the brain is to evaluate the emotional and motivational
significance of stimuli and to adapt behaviour accordingly. The IMAGEN study is the first …

Predictive models ground many state-of-the-art developments in statistical brain image
analysis: decoding, MVPA, searchlight, or extraction of biomarkers. The principled approach …

The origins of human abilities for mathematics are debated: Some theories suggest that they
are founded upon evolutionarily ancient brain circuits for number and space and others that …

Previous neuroimaging research has identified a number of brain regions sensitive to
different aspects of linguistic processing, but precise functional characterization of these …

Analysis and interpretation of neuroimaging data often require one to divide the brain into a
number of regions, or parcels, with homogeneous characteristics, be these regions defined …

Abstract Machine learning is increasingly being applied to neuroimaging data. However,
most machine learning algorithms have not been designed to accommodate neuroimaging …

What role does domain-general cognitive control play in understanding linguistic input?
Although much evidence has suggested that domain-general cognitive control and working …

The visual word form area (VWFA), a region systematically involved in the identification of
written words, occupies a reproducible location in the left occipitotemporal sulcus in expert …

The ability to extract deep structures from auditory sequences is a fundamental prerequisite
of language acquisition. Using fMRI in untrained macaques and humans, we investigated …
