The last day of #SNL2026 featured Roy Hamilton on noninvasive neuromodulation approaches and the symposium on the dorsal stream’s role in reading. More postes & slides presentations officially marked this year’s record number of scientific contributions to our Society: we’re extremely grateful!
Day 3 of #SNL2026: a panel pushing the evolutionary perspective, Yanchao Bi weaving language, vision & memory in the brain, the award session (2026.neurolang.org/awards-sessi...), and of course two terrific posters & slides sessions 🎉 And a fitness challenge, let's not forget the fitness challenge!
🧠🗣️ #SNL2026 Day 2 kickoff!
NCCR Evolving Language panel with Yannick Becker, Richard Hahnloser, Sonja Katz & Paul Middlebrooks 🎙️
💬 How did its neural architecture evolve? What can animal models teach us? How do culture & social complexity shape language? 🌍🧠
Thank you for the rich discussions
Yes, absolutely! Their are being recorded and will be available for all members. And congratulations!
A recap of the 1st day at #SNL2026 🧠: Keynote by John O’Keefe (rodent hippocampus & spatial lang), 2 Slide Sessions on early dev & speech perception, Symposium (how can neural evidence constrain theories of lang processing?), 2 Poster Sessions, & great discussions over ☕ & 🍽️. See you tomorrow! 👋
A glimpse from our welcoming reception last night @ Campus Biotech! @fcbg-neuro.bsky.social. A great way to kick off #SNL2026 : reconnecting with colleagues and meeting new ones over some fondue 🫕 many attendees also joined tours of the HNP facilities (see a virtual tour here: youtu.be/M5QEj-5IxfI).
John O’Keefe navigating the language field, a symposium on the role of neural evidence for language theory, two poster sessions & two slide sessions: the second day of #SNL2026 had something for all tastes!
Mens sana in corpore sano 👇🏼 Come show us the strenght of our sharp minds!
