Speech processing is adaptive, shaped by development and experience. Studying speech processing in dyslexia gives us a unique window into the neural mechanisms of this flexibility. @nicolaml.bsky.social @marielallierbcbl.bsky.social @mirjanabozic.bsky.social #Neuroscience #Language #Dyslexia #TINs

To accompany all those Bluesky science/academia #starterpacks, how about we also share introductions to the literature of our different fields. I present here a handy guide to main types of papers in the language sciences (inspired by the amazing @xkcd.com). #language #linguistics #science #academia
Comic depictions of the first page of research papers in the language sciences, with titles that include the following: 
Just what the hell is a word anyway?
See how this single cognitive process or brain area or neural oscillation or gene explains language!
Based on the shapes of these old bones, Homo erectus could sing .... don't @ me.
A baby looked at one thing more than the other, now we know the secret to grammar.
If you think about it, every language is fundamentally the same, amirite?
We taught a load of undergrads a made-up language, lol.
On the staggering diversity of the many languages across the world.
Remember the thing you said only humans could do, here's a video of a monkey / dolphin / corvid / octopus / honeybee doing it.
I trained this AI with 80 billion tweets and it became head-writer for phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
