The study offers the first neural evidence that traces of the “lost” language remain in the brain.</p> Mon, 17 Nov 2014 14:37:13 +0000 anita.kar@mcgill.ca 1127 at /channels-contribute The role of neural rhythmic entrainment in early language learning: Victoria Leong, PhD /channels-contribute/channels/event/role-neural-rhythmic-entrainment-early-language-learning-victoria-leong-phd-239922 <p>Please join us for a CRBLM Invited Lecture by Victoria Leong, PhD (Cambridge University), who will present "The role of rhythmic entrainment in early language learning" on Wednesday, November 5th at 3 pm in the Goodman Cancer Centre, Roo</p> Tue, 04 Nov 2014 15:30:55 +0000 lisa.coady@mcgill.ca 1118 at /channels-contribute Learning a new language alters brain development /channels-contribute/channels/news/learning-new-language-alters-brain-development-230131 <p><i>Scientists at The Neuro find important time factor in second-language acquisition</i></p> <p>The age at which children learn a second language can have a significant bearing on the structure of their adult brain, according to a new joint study by the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital - The Neuro at ϲ University and Oxford University. The majority of people in the world learn to speak more than one language during their lifetime. Many do so with great proficiency particularly if the languages are learned simultaneously or from early in development.</p> Thu, 29 Aug 2013 14:16:57 +0000 anita.kar@mcgill.ca 780 at /channels-contribute Join us at our inaugural symposium on Music and Language, with a focus this year on Development /channels-contribute/channels/news/join-us-our-inaugural-symposium-music-and-language-focus-year-development-225645 <p>Registration is now open for the CRBLM Inaugural Symposium on Music and Language, to be held in Montréal, Canada on Friday, May 3rd and Saturday May 4th 2013.
