The first paper from the Cortex Special Issue on Conceptual Knowledge is out! 🧠 In this perspective piece, David Kemmerer and Guy Dove propose that what’s truly “default” about the Default Mode Network is its role in representing language-specific, culturally diverse concepts. 1/🧵

Extra thanks to Ajay Halai, my successor. He’s worked hard on this programme, and I wish him luck for future meetings.

The age at which children learn words depends on frequency of exposure, phonological complexity, and concreteness. In this new paper, we show that it also depends on the social relevance of the word, and that some abstract words may be learned earlier because they capture our social experiences.
