Timing, action, and language

IMéRA

Timing is essential for the smooth coordination of neural and motor processes involved in action execution.  The brain’s ability to time actions is related to the integration of information across sensory modalities and involves generation of predictive signals to anticipate future events.  Timing ability is essential for successful performance of movements in music, and dance, […]

Salle des voûtes, St Charles 3 place Victor Hugo, Marseille, France

Stephanie Ries Associate Professor, San Diego State University   The dorso-medial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), including the supplementary and pre-supplementary motor areas as well as the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex, has been a region of interest in studies of cognitive control and other areas of neuroscience for many years. Yet, traditional models of language production do […]

Word learning in honor of Lila Gleitman: Perception of structure from language and world

Salle 9-050 Université Aix-Marseille Campus St Charles 3 Pl. Victor Hugo, Marseille, France
