The language network as a natural kind within the broader landscape of the human brain
Abstract Language behaviour is complex, but neuroscientific evidence disentangles it into
distinct components supported by dedicated brain areas or networks. In this Review, we …

Prediction during language comprehension: what is next?
Prediction is often regarded as an integral aspect of incremental language comprehension,
but little is known about the cognitive architectures and mechanisms that support it. We …

The neural architecture of language: Integrative modeling converges on predictive processing
The neuroscience of perception has recently been revolutionized with an integrative
modeling approach in which computation, brain function, and behavior are linked across …

Driving and suppressing the human language network using large language models
Transformer models such as GPT generate human-like language and are predictive of
human brain responses to language. Here, using functional-MRI-measured brain responses …

Probabilistic atlas for the language network based on precision fMRI data from> 800 individuals
Two analytic traditions characterize fMRI language research. One relies on averaging
activations across individuals. This approach has limitations: because of inter-individual …

The domain-general multiple demand (MD) network does not support core aspects of language comprehension: a large-scale fMRI investigation
Aside from the language-selective left-lateralized frontotemporal network, language
comprehension sometimes recruits a domain-general bilateral frontoparietal network …

Lack of selectivity for syntax relative to word meanings throughout the language network
To understand what you are reading now, your mind retrieves the meanings of words and
constructions from a linguistic knowledge store (lexico-semantic processing) and identifies …

Disentangling neuroplasticity mechanisms in post-stroke language recovery
A major objective in post-stroke aphasia research is to gain a deeper understanding of
neuroplastic mechanisms that drive language recovery, with the ultimate goal of enhancing …

The human language system, including its inferior frontal component in “Broca's area,” does not support music perception
Abstract Language and music are two human-unique capacities whose relationship remains
debated. Some have argued for overlap in processing mechanisms, especially for structure …

Precision fMRI reveals that the language-selective network supports both phrase-structure building and lexical access during language production
A fronto-temporal brain network has long been implicated in language comprehension.
However, this network's role in language production remains debated. In particular, it …
