👉 Starts Research is a cognitive neuroscience lab at the University of Sussex that focuses on understanding how the brain processes language, particularly through the lens of computational and mathematical modeling. Led by Professor Simon Baron-Cohen, Starts explores the neural mechanisms underlying language acquisition, comprehension, and production. Their research often employs advanced neuroimaging techniques, such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG), to map brain activity during language tasks. A key aspect of their work involves developing computational models that simulate how the brain might process linguistic information, aiming to bridge the gap between neural data and cognitive theories. This interdisciplinary approach not only enhances our understanding of language but also has implications for fields like artificial intelligence and education.
