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.

New issue of Cognitive Neuroscience

February 21, 2011

The journal has been given a completely new look, especially for this sixth volume. The content this year ranges from genetic influences on the emergence of Alzheimerʼs disease to controlling your own social emotional behaviour and from audiovisual integration in monkeys to planning the movement of your limbs.

Best theses of students

The Proceedings of the Masterʼs Programme Cognitive Neuroscience was first introduced in 2006 with the aim of publishing the best theses of the students that graduated that year. The journal is run entirely by students following the official procedures of a scientific journal. This makes the journal a unique initiative with very few counterparts.

The formal presentation on February 25 will focus on current developments in neuroscience communication. Leading scientists from the Donders Institute (a.o. Peter Hagoort and Ivan Toni) will shed light on the topic of communication with the general public and communication among scientists.
