Join us for our next seminar! We're excited to host Hsieh Cheng-Yu (University of London)

He'll discuss "Making sense from the parts: What Chinese compounds tell us about reading," exploring how we process ambiguity & meaning consistency

Great week at #ESLP2025 in Aix-en-Provence! Huge congrats to our colleagues for their excellent talks on computational models, sound symbolism, and multimodal cognition. Proud of the team and the stimulating discussions!

Great presentation by @fabiomarson.bsky.social last Saturday at #AMLAP2025! He shared his latest research using EEG to study how we integrate novel semantic representations, “linguistic chimeras”, from context.

Congratulations on a fascinating talk!

📢 Upcoming Seminar

Words are weird? On the role of lexical ambiguity in language

🎤 Just presented at #AMLaP2024! "Be the wapple of my eye: Predicting the sensorimotor pattern of novel words from language-based representations" by @giulialoca_, Simona Amenta & @MarelliMar. 📈 The presentation was very well received. Thanks for the incredible feedback!

New seminar by @ERCbravenewword on July 15th at 2:00 PM! Link to join: https://meet.google.com/hyr-habw-vnj

Over the past weekend at the International Word Processing Conference, we presented our findings on how adults process novel words, integrating psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience. @ERCbravenewword (@MarelliMar, @RBonandrini, Iva Saban, @fabio_marson, @giulialoca_)

New addition to the lab!
