Welcome

The Psycholinguistics and Neurolinguistics Lab of the University of Ljubljana (Slovenia) investigates language processing in healthy adults (young and elderly, as well as L2 speakers) and in individuals with brain damage (especially Alzheimer's disease, Mild Cognitive Impairment, Semantic Dementia, Primary Progressive Aphasia, Parkinson's disease and related dementias).

Research carried out in the lab aims to bring into light the psychological and neurological mechanisms underlying language processes and to link linguistic knowledge to human behavior and the neurophysiology of human cognition. 

Our research covers a wide range of topics including the areas of morphological, morphosyntactic and semantic processing in healthy adults and the cognitive and linguistic impairments in aging populations demonstrating language deficits.

We employ a variety of behavioral (chronometrized and non-chronometrized tasks) and brain-imaging methods, including eye-tracking, EEG, MEG and TMS in order to uncover the mechanisms that enable humans to produce and understand language in real time. Quite a few of our studies are done in collaboration with research centers in Europe (Belgium, Greece, Italy, UK) as well as the US and Canada.
