Schizophrenia (SZ) and autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are characterised by marked
language deficits, but it is not clear how these arise from gene mutations associated with the …

This book explains how the brain interacts with the social world—and why stories matter.
How do our brains enable us to tell and follow stories? And how do stories affect our minds …

Identifying biomarkers of develo** mental disorder is crucial to improving early
identification and treatment—a key strategy for reducing the burden of mental disorders …

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are pervasive neurodevelopmental disorders entailing
social and cognitive deficits, including marked problems with language. Numerous genes …

We explore the potential that brain oscillations have for improving our understanding of how
language develops, is processed in the brain, and initially evolved in our species. The …

Schizophrenia is characterized by marked language deficits, but it is not clear how these
deficits arise from the alteration of genes related to the disease. The goal of this paper is to …

Recent neurophysiological research suggests that slow cortical activity tracks hierarchical
syntactic structure during online sentence processing. Here we tested an alternative …

Cognitive narratology needs a neuroscientifically sound understanding of language. This
essay lays out a neurobiological model of narrative that explains how stories arise from and …

Formulating a minimalist model for language, Gärtner and Sauerland (2007) collected a
series of papers exploring the possibility that the recursive generative component plus the …

Language has been argued to arise, both ontogenetically and phylogenetically, from
specific patterns of brain wiring. We argue that it can further be shown that core features of …
