I know: memories of #SNL2025 are fading and #SNL2026 seems too far away... One remedy? Join our member-initiated virtual activity! (and/or propose and organise new ones 😉 ) 2025.neurolang.org/virtual-acti...

What happens when you put experts in multilingualism, genetics, neuroimaging, & animal cognition in the same @isbilingualism.bsky.social panel? @nargolestani.bsky.social and I, supported by @nccrlanguage.bsky.social, took on the challenge and...learned a lot while having a blast!

Prepping your fall syllabus, teaching statement or...er... teacher evaluation? Just really opinionated? Come next week and help us collectively figuring out how should we be teaching neurobiology of language! DM for more info.

Valentina Borghesani @vborghesani.bsky.social · Feb 26

@irenebalboni.bsky.social and I would like to share thoughts and opinions on what should be in the syllabus of "neurobiology of language" in 2026. What's in and what's out, in terms of both content and methods?
