You like testing illusions? We invite you to experience an illusory phenomenon linked to the perception of speech!

In our research projects, we often use tests that assess cognitive functions, also called "cognition".

On June 8, Pascale Tremblay, director of the laboratory, spoke with Stephen Wilson, a professor at Vanderbilt University, Tennessee, USA, as part of The Language Neuroscience Podcast, hosted by Professor Wilson.

Have you ever scored verbal fluency tasks? We are launching today a new study, which is part of the master's project of Gabriel Frazer-McKee, a student of the lab!

Several mad scientists have struck our imagination with their science experiments that had catastrophic consequences. Think of Doctor Frankenstein, who gave life to a monster made from human remains, Doctor Octopus whose body was fused to mechanical arms, or Doc Brown, who accidentally made Marty McFly travel back in time!

If you listen to Quebec Prime Minister Legault's press briefings on television, you may have noticed the presence of sign language interpreters. Has your curiosity been piqued by this language? Have you wondered what it must be like to live with deafness?

The results of a scientific study indicate this, those of another study rather suggest that, a third study supports the opposite... scientific literature can sometimes seem contradictory. What’s more, not all studies are of the same quality! How do you navigate all of this?!

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a brain imaging technique used by our laboratory. This fact sheet presents this technique and its interest in our research projects.
