Computational Neuroscience of Language Processing in the Human Brain
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Language is a signature human cognitive skill, but the precise computations that support language understanding remain unknown. This study aims to combine high-quality human neural data obtained through intracranial recordings with advances in computational modeling of human cognition to shed light on the construction and understanding of speech.
