About MPI

 

The Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics is an institute of the German Max Planck Society. Our mission is to undertake basic research into the psychological,social and biological foundations of language. The goal is to understand how our minds and brains process language, how language interacts with other aspects of mind, and how we can learn languages of quite different types.

The institute is situated on the campus of the Radboud University. We participate in the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, and have particularly close ties to that institute's Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging. We also participate in the Centre for Language Studies. A joint graduate school, the IMPRS in Language Sciences, links the Donders Institute, the CLS and the MPI.

The CNS journal was introduced in 2006 and has been published annually. It is the first Cognitive Neuroscience journal in the Netherlands that is produced by CNS master students. The journal offers students a worthy context to present and share their scientific accomplishments with other institutes and laboratories, and gives them the opportunity to become familiar with the fairly complicated process of scientific publication. Every issue publishes the best theses of CNS graduates, chosen via an intensive review process.

Current issue

The 2012 issue contains papers about language understanding and motor and theory of mind systems, brain state differences in somatosensory cortices of rats, somatosensory orienting in humans and the relation to attentional orienting, motor memories of self-motion, conflicts in the bilingual brain, and ERP-based tactile spellers.
