Neuroscience labs

Much of the Language in Action research is conducted in the MPI and Donders Institute neuroscience labs. We have a 128-channel EEG lab at the MPI, and several more EEG labs as well as a whole-head 275 channel MEG system, MRI-scanners at 1.5, 3 and 7 Tesla, and a TMS-lab are available at the Donders Institute, Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging (CCN).

Virtual reality lab

We also have an on-site Virtual Reality lab, which allows us to study complex communication while keeping tight experimental control over important variables.

Behavioural labs

Because we aim to explain communicative behaviour, evidence from behavioural paradigms is often highly relevant as well. We conduct such experiments in the well-equipped behavioural labs at the MPI.

More information on our labs is available elsewhere on the website, both for prospective experiment participants, and for colleagues in science.
