According to some estimates, more than half of the world's population is multilingual to some
extent. Because of the centrality of language use to human experience and the deep …

The anatomy of language has been investigated with PET or fMRI for more than 20years.
Here I attempt to provide an overview of the brain areas associated with heard speech …

High-velocity change is the fundamental challenge facing companies today. Few
companies, however, are prepared to continuously innovate-because they focus on the …

Ten years ago, researchers using event‐related brain potentials (ERPs) to study language
comprehension were puzzled by what looked like a Semantic Illusion: Semantically …

This article presents a review of the effects of adverse conditions (ACs) on the perceptual,
linguistic, cognitive, and neurophysiological mechanisms underlying speech recognition …

Speech production has been studied predominantly from within two traditions,
psycholinguistics and motor control. These traditions have rarely interacted, and the …

A key feature of speech is the quasi-regular rhythmic information contained in its slow
amplitude modulations. In this article we review the information conveyed by speech rhythm …

Despite decades of research, the functional neuroanatomy of speech processing has been
difficult to characterize. A major impediment to progress may have been the failure to …

Sensorimotor integration is an active domain of speech research and is characterized by two
main ideas, that the auditory system is critically involved in speech production and that the …

Spoken word recognition requires complex, invariant representations. Using a meta-analytic
approach incorporating more than 100 functional imaging experiments, we show that …
