Speech production is a fundamental aspect of human communication, yet its underlying neural intricacies remain largely unexplored. This project aims to investigate how concepts are translated into spoken language by probing the neural mechanisms governing speech production. In this project, you will analyse brain data from electrophysiology to describe various facets of speech production. Through … Read more

Restoring speech communication in individuals that can’t speak or have difficulty speaking (e.g., individuals with ALS) is an important challenge that could benefit many. While many solutions have been proposed that have various limitations, recent progress in machine learning methods (e.g., transformers) open new opportunities. This project aims to decode the intended speech of individuals … Read more

The perception of speech has been studied extensively, due to its importance in our society. Sign language is an alternative form of communication, primarily adopted by individuals that are deaf, with severe hearing impairment, or with severe difficulties speaking to physically speak. However, it is unknown how the brain of the “listener” transforms sign language … Read more
