Based on the thesis of my brilliant student Lucia from @ccniuofg.bsky.social @uofglasgow.bsky.social, we see that gendered language (Italian) can be a painful source of non affirmation for non binary people. We also make some suggestions for how to improve their experiences and create safer spaces 🙏

Are there good neuro/neuroimaging journals that still accept brief communications, i.e., short papers focused on 1-2 results? Interesting results but not "major impact". #neuroskyence

On my way back from a few great days in Tromsø for #EuroSLA34 🇳🇴 I presented a poster on our latest paper and had lots of very insightful conversations! Thanks to the organizers! @eurosla.bsky.social @c-labl.bsky.social

Lo scorso anno si sono unitə a noi 341 scienziatə! 💥🔬 Ora vi mostriamo dove lavorano: da università italiane a laboratori in tutto il mondo 🌍 📅 Presto riaprono le iscrizioni per il 2025/26… ti unirai a noi?

Everything ready for #EuroSLA34 in the incredibleTromsø! If you are around find me at the poster session tomorrow afternoon! @eurosla.bsky.social

📍Qual è la provincia di origine di chi partecipa al nostro progetto? 🌍Ve lo raccontiamo in questa mappa che mostra da dove arrivano i più di 300 scienziate e scienziati delle Penne. 📣Vuoi unirti a noi? A breve apriamo le iscrizioni per chi vorrà fare parte del nostro progetto nel 2026!

Just landed in Geneva after an incredible and dense week at @isbilingualism.bsky.social in San Sebastian! It was a pleasure to spend the week discussing bilingualism, multilingualism, reading and more with some of the most brilliant people in the field!

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!

Day 1 of #ISB15 @isbilingualism.bsky.social

🗣️Professor @berthele.bsky.social, from Institut de Plurilinguisme at Université de Fribourg, has been invited to speak to us about predispositions for multiple #language learning. We are eager to know more about his work! Discover more about it here👇 www.bcbl.eu/es/noticias/...

Happening today👇👇👇👇👇

Delighted to announce the publication of a collaborative effort, co-led by @limorraviv.bsky.social @mpi-nl.bsky.social, showcasing the ways in which researchers have made language evolution an empirical issue: A handbook of experimental approaches to the fascinating problem of language evolution 🧪

Are you designing your syllabus? Preparing a teaching statement for the job market? Or do you want to discuss what is missing in teaching materials and manuals? Join @irenebalboni.bsky.social and @vborghesani.bsky.social to talk about teaching Neurobiology of language👇

🧠What should a neurobiology of language course look like? Next week (May 27, 18:00 CEST), I’ll co-host with @vborghesani.bsky.social a virtual SNL session on content, tools and strategies for teaching an up-to-date course in 2025. Join us to share ideas!

💥Third year of talking Neuroscience with the researchers of tomorrow! 🧠This week we met 75 elementary school students and explored the Neuroscience of memory and language. 👩‍🏫 It is always a pleasure to do this fun/exhausting/beautiful thing with the amazing Isotta Rigoni. 👉 @ohbm-dic.bsky.social

Hey, that's us! @brainlanglab.bsky.social

Delighted to have the Version of Record of our work published by @elife.bsky.social. Please take a look at how we answered the question of whether the auditory cortex accommodates multilingual phonological experience (spoiler: it does, and very interestingly so!) 🗣️👂🧠

Tired of calls for unlocking AI's full potential. Time to unlock the full potential of investing in public health and public education so nurses and teachers are no longer underpaid and overworked.

Join us!

Join me and @vborghesani.bsky.social to discuss what makes a good Neurobio of language curriculum. 📚 Which topics to include and topics to get rid off? 🔨Do you want to recommend some great material/tool you use in your lecture? Or do you need any recommendation for one? 🗓Join us on 27th of May!👇👇

What do we need, in good as in bad times? A community. Today is as good a day as any to: ✨renew your membership to the Society for the Neurobiology of Language ✨submit an abstract/symposium to #SNL2025 ✨ register for one of the member-initiated virtual activities 2025.neurolang.org/virtual-acti...

I had the pleasure of speaking at this month's CO-AIR webinar, where we discussed our review on Dyslexia in Bilinguals. It was a fun talk with great questions afterwards! A big thank you to everyone who attended and if you missed it, you can watch the recording👇 /🧵

It's almost time for our 11th CO-AIR webinar on audiovisual integration and reading: Wed. Feb. 19th, 6-8 pm (CET)! So, few days left for late birds to register... Inspiring talks: Hannah Nash, @irenebalboni.bsky.social, @gretatuckute.bsky.social & Elizabeth Lee. Register: tinyurl.com/y6rnxp9k

Grazie infinite alle più di 200 volontarie che rendono possibile il nostro progetto! Non le conosco tutte personalmente e non posso taggarle tutte, ma anno dopo anno le vedo contribuire alla diffusione di un messaggio chiaro e diretto su chi fa (e può fare) scienza 💙

Il tema di quest'anno è "Immagina un mondo con più donne nella scienza". Grazie al progetto @penneamiche.bsky.social le bambine e i bambini di quasi 200 classi non hanno bisogno di immaginarlo ma scoprono cosa sia il mestiere di scienziata direttamente attraverso le nostre voci ed esperienze

Can't wait to discuss bilingual dyslexia with the CO-AIR crowd! 📚🌍💬

✨Our NEBULA101 dataset is out!✨ First co-authored with Alessandra Rampinini, this labor of love (and project management) combines data from 101 participants, including both behavior and MRI data. Grateful for @nccrlanguage.bsky.social's support and proud to share it with the language community! 🚀

“‘It’s very easy to assume that science is going to change organically towards equality — and what this study shows is that that’s not happening…It is an ‘important reminder for us that we need to stay vigilant in working towards equality in science’” @crsugimoto.bsky.social 🧪 #AcademicSky 👩🏽‍🔬

So so happy to share one of the works from my doctoral thesis!!🎉🎉🎉 Check out this preprint on our systematic review on bilingual dyslexia 📚📖🗣️ A little overview 👇👇👇 /🧵

Registration is now open for the virtual TEAM Conference on Language Acquisition and Multilingualism on 16 Jan, 2025! www.team-up.lu.se/team-confere... Speakers include Ifigeneia Dosi, @nargolestani.bsky.social Peter MacIntyre, Christina Gagne, Tom Spalding, and @lauragwilliams.bsky.social

I am thrilled to share our new paper which investigates the role of continuous measures in linguistic diversity research. We found that children who are exposed to more linguistic diversity (e.g., language, dialect, accent) are perceptually more flexible. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Aaaand...it's a wrap!!🎉 Last week I successfully defended my doctoral thesis. It has been a tough but incredible and amazing ride. Looking forward to phase 2 of the nccrlanguage.bsky.social and to continue working on our data. But first, some time to celebrate properly...don't email me for a while!👋

Sempre più scienziatə si sono uniti a noi permettendoci di raggiungere centinaia di bambine e bambini. Purtroppo ogni anno non riusciamo ad accontentare tutte le classi e per questo abbiamo bisogno di....PIÙ SCIENZIATƏ! Unisciti a noi quest’anno 👉https://lnkd.in/e9pwEhRj

Vi va di parlare di scienza, far conoscere il vostro lavoro e rispondere alle curiosità delle scienziate e scienziati del futuro? Avete ancora un po' di tempo per unirvi a noi! Qui trovate più informazioni e il form per iscriversi 👉 sites.google.com/view/penne-a...

We're out and we are about! 🎉🎉🎉 Check out our work on the relationships between cognition, language and domain specific skills. Featuring one of my personal favourites: literacy being a special little thing

Our new talk series is starting!! 🎉 Register and join us to talk about career development with our incredible speakers

Into the cognitive neuroscience of language? Sophie Schwartz, Marina Laganaro, and I (@nocelab.bsky.social)are looking to fill two phd/postdoc positions within the @nccrlanguage.bsky.social Join us: bit.ly/LangCogNeuro #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky #CogSci #langsky

We did some science in this amazing place last week! It was a pleasure to present one of my PhD project with this view outside the window during ABIM. (And yes, you cannot see me in the first picture but it's me, I promise)
