Advancing the European Multilingual Experience (ATHEME)
Start date: Mar 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2019,
"The project Advancing The European Multilingual Experience (AThEME) takes an integrated approach towards the study of multilingualism in Europe by incorporating and combining linguistic, cognitive and sociological perspectives; by studying multilingualism in Europe at three different levels of societal magnitude, viz. the individual multilingual citizen, the multilingual group, and the multilingu ...

Bi-literacy: Learning to read in L1 and in L2 (BILITERACY)
Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2017,
"Learning to read is probably one of the most exciting discoveries in our life. Using a longitudinal approach, the research proposed examines how the human brain responds to two major challenges: (a) the instantiation a complex cognitive function for which there is no genetic blueprint (learning to read in a first language, L1), and (b) the accommodation to new statistical regularities when learni ...

Cross-linguistic and Cross-population Verb Processing (CCVP)
Start date: Nov 17, 2012, End date: Nov 16, 2015,
Verb processing is broadly described as being problematic in agrammatic aphasia, a medical consequence of left frontal hemisphere damage. Errors in verb processing are also observed in children with Specific Language Impairment, a developmental language learning disability. The aim of the present study, entitled “Cross-linguistic and Cross-population Verb Processing” is to collect and compare verb ...

A Triangle Model for the 21st Century (TRIANGLE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2015,
"The proposed research aims to understand written and spoken word comprehension via computational, behavioural, and electrophysiological (EEG/ERP) investigations.Computational Investigations. I will develop improved connectionist models which capture the time-course of interactions among orthography, phonology, and semantics during word comprehension. These models will address key limitations of ...

In-depth investigation of the non-stationary dynamics of resting-state brain activity and its impact on behaviour and cognition (R&B BRAIN)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2015,
The brain is never at rest. Whether performing a task or mind wandering, the human brain exhibits a rich mixture of transient, evoked activity and ongoing spontaneous fluctuations, reflecting the non-stationary and dynamic nature of neuronal activity. This activity connects functionally specialized but widely distributed cortical regions in order to support complex cognitive functions. The non-sta ...

How words and semantic are stored in the brain? (WORD-SEM STORE)
Start date: Feb 3, 2013, End date: Feb 2, 2015,
"Reading consists in establishing a correspondence between the physical form of the printed word and a semantic interpretation stored in the permanent memory. This project will investigate in greater detail how this orthographic form information, called lexical representation, is mapped onto word concepts, called semantic representations. In other words, how these two qualitatively different codes ...
