Subject: A group which meets up to discuss issues in language and cognition

Description: A research group which meets up to discuss issues related to language and
cognition. The term "cognition" is deliberately broad and encompasses

- Memory systems, e.g. short-term memory, working memory, procedural memory
- Theories of embodiment
- The relationship between language and perception / language and the conceptual
system (neo-Whofianism / linguistic relativity, cultural determinants of human
cognition)
- Theories of neural organisation, e.g. modularity versus connectionism
- Organisation of the language system in bilinguals
- Any aspect of online language processing (e.g. categorical perception in
speech comprehension, garden-path versus constraint-based models of sentence
processing)
- Typical and atypical first and later language development and processing
- Neural correlates of language and cognitive processing

We are also interested in discussing new methodologies in psycholinguistics,
e.g. eye-tracking, or new forms of data analysis.
