  1. Language processing is a trait of human species. The knowledge about its neurobiological basis has been increased considerably over the past decades. Different brain regions in the left and right hemisphere have been identified to support particular language functions.

  2. The assumption of a unique human language organ has cut off scientific discourse from the rest of biology and from the rest of psychology. The contributions of biology become effectively constrained to human neurobiology.

  3. Jul 23, 2021 · THE BIOLOGICAL BASIS OF LANGUAGE. The human anatomy that allowed the development of language emerged six to seven million years ago when the first human ancestors became bipedal—habitually walking on two feet. Most other mammals are quadrupedal—they move about on four feet.

  4. Apr 25, 2024 · “We were each put on Earth to torment the other,” says cognitive scientist Steven Pinker in reference to Elizabeth Bates, a psychologist who challenged a prevailing theory about how humans...

  5. There is evidence that early mastery of the phonetic units of language requires learning in a social context. Neuroscience on early language learning is beginning to reveal the multiple brain systems that underlie the human language faculty.

  6. Aug 1, 2019 · Here, we have argued that this predisposition is core to the phenomenon of multimodal language processing and have proposed a framework that embraces this notion and cognitive mechanisms that may scaffold how we process multimodal language in situ.

  8. Here we focus on the thalamus, which we argue is central to language and human cognition, as it modulates fronto-parietal activity. With this new neurobiological perspective in place, we examine its possible molecular basis.
