The Lab for Language and Cognitive Neuroscience studies language processing and its neurological underpinnings. Main themes are lexical access and all its interfaces, such as morphology, morphosyntaxm syntax and orthographic processing. We are also interested in investigating lexical access and how it interacts with phenomena such as bilingualism, atypical development, which often will require studying various cognitive domains such as attention, memory, emotion and social cognition. We use experimental methodology from the field of psycholinguistics, and we work with EEG, more especifically  ERP. Our neurophysiological studies are made possible by our intensive collaboration with the EEG lab at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, of which Marije is also a coordinating member: ACESIN/UFRJ.
