Leaving #SNL2025 with new energy for research and collaboration. Thank you to Gallaudet University for hosting! We presented ongoing work on (1) the neural mechanisms of Theory of Mind in distinct language profiles and (2) language learning as an intervention for cognitive decline in healthy aging.

Congratulations to @davidpoeppel.bsky.social of the MPIEA, the recipient of the 2025 Distinguished Career Award! The Society for the Neurobiology of Language honored his research, which has advanced our understanding of how the brain processes language. s.gwdg.de/rnHI4J

#SNL2025

So glad to have attended my first #SNL conference and presented a poster with @riccardoventurini.bsky.social, showing beta functional connectivity alterations linked to pragmatic impairment in schizophrenia. Great time here in Washington and inspiring talks at Gallaudet University 🧠 #NEPLab #SNL2025

And with today, our experience at #SNL2025 at @gallaudetpress.bsky.social comes to an end. Exciting three days learning state-of-the-art research in neurobiology of Language with #NEPLab's own @federicofrau.bsky.social

Kudos to the presenter who, at their poster, explained they were "separating the forest from the (syntactic) trees" during their walk-through. #SNL2025

I have a VERY limited number of MIT Press colophon baseball caps to give away in the @mitpress.bsky.social booth at #SNL2025 @jneurolang.bsky.social

Watching one of my heroes Carol Padden presenting now on emerging sign languages. Rare contexts in which we can study the emergence of novel languages! @snlmtg.bsky.social #SNL2025

Padden authored the classic book Deaf in America, required reading for communication disorders students in my view.

Day 2 of #snl2025 featured wonderful talk from Dave Poeppel, interesting keynote, posters from my team, and a thought provoking panel. My brain and heart are full!

The symposium on deaf children with cochlear implants linguistic development was refreshingly not negative! I finally don’t feel guilty about being deaf and appreciative of hearing technology (and weirdly excited about being able to get my CI after I defend?!) #SNL2025

Two top papers from Volume 5 (2024) of the journal Neurobiology of Language were honored today at @snlmtg.bsky.social. Congratulations to all the authors!

@jneurolang.bsky.social is completely #openaccess. Links to the award-winning papers below 👇 #SNL2025

@drdyerit.bsky.social asking how we can bridge the gaps between inclusion of deaf people in discussions of cochlear implants while respecting hearing families of deaf children

@snlmtg.bsky.social #SNL2025

David Corina introducing the symposium on cochlear implants and sign language. Important research and policy implications.

@f-geranmayeh.bsky.social Fatemeh Geranmayeh’s keynote on using language models to understand stroke aphasia recovery @snlmtg.bsky.social #SNL2025

Really enjoying this keynote from Fatemeh Geranmeyah—use of new technologies like ASR/LLMs as a potential support for aphasics. Accessible, clear, and really thoughtful talk! #snl2025

Just a reminder: fitness challenge at #SNL2025 is tomorrow!

Excited to present this (now-published) project at the 11am poster session today. Poster C36 for the elevator version! #SNL2025
