Brain scans show a spot in the cerebellum attuned specifically to words, expanding on studies that point to the region's ...

New research shows AI language models mirror how the human brain builds meaning over time while listening to natural speech.

Artificial intelligence was built to process data, not to think like us. Yet a growing body of research is finding that the internal workings of advanced language and speech models are starting to ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain understands spoken language in a way that closely resembles how advanced AI language models work. By tracking brain activity as people listened to a ...

We investigated how our brains process language during real-life conversations. Specifically, we wanted to understand which brain regions become active when we're speaking and listening, and how these ...

Imagine seeing a furry, four-legged animal that meows. Mentally, you know what it is, but the word 'cat' is stuck on the tip of your tongue. This phenomenon, known as Broca's aphasia or expressive ...

For years, scientists have gathered evidence that learning and speaking multiple languages changes the brain. But a new study published in Nature Aging suggests those changes may go deeper than anyone ...

Learn the new science of brain development and discover the importance of connections and learning for ongoing brain health.

Researchers find that communication between key brain regions shortly after injury may predict long-term functional recovery in traumatic brain injury patients.

Scientists have, for the first time, identified brain regions outside the front lobe involved in the intent to produce speech. Broca’s aphasia is caused by damage to the frontal lobe, leaves patients ...
