TITLE: "Watching the Brain Comprehend Language"

Morton Ann Gernsbacher (University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA)

ABSTRACT: In this talk I shall present the results of several experiments designed to watch the brain at work. The work performed by the brain in these experiments was comprehending language - specifically written, spoken, and pictorial narratives. In addition to exploring the neural bases underlying the process I call "mapping" (or integration) and the mechanism I call "suppression," these experiments illustrate general principles involved in brain imaging research.
